My aunt called me "emotional" for saying I wouldn't accept a job that pays less than $20 an hour

I am currently unemployed (and have been for a few months now), and my aunt has decided that I'm being "too picky" regarding potential job offers.

Specifically, she said "You have to start at the bottom and work your way up to a higher wage."

I am not asking for the world. I'm not a fucking kid anymore. EDIT: I have a 4-year degree. I have 8 years of job experience, and I'm not "starting at the bottom" anywhere.

When I started to explain that even $15 an hour is not a liveable wage for an adult looking to live on their own, she said I was "being overly emotional," and she launched into a very boomer-y rant about how everyone wants more money, but very few people are worth $20 an hour.

I don't know what she fucking expected, but I'm still not taking a job for anything less. Getting really fucking tired of octagenarians trying to tell me how job hunting works when they've been retired for 10+ years.

EDIT 2: I've had a few people ask, so I wanted to add this to explain how I've been able to afford to not take job offers for lower wages while waiting for one that pays at least $20/hour.

I have a decent amount of money saved up from my previous job. I lost my previous job and my previous living arrangements very suddenly. I asked my parents if they were okay with me moving back in with them temporarily while looking for other living arrangements, and they made it clear that they were fine with me living with them for an extended period of time.

I moved back in with them and offered to pay rent, but they have declined my offer (thus far). They are very well-off, which is likely why they declined me paying rent. Aside from paying my part of the weekly grocery bill, I have zero living expenses. To make up for that in part, I keep the house clean and cook for them, which they seem very grateful for.

I'm aware that this living arrangement is not an option for most people though, so I understand why people have commented wondering how it's possible for me to pass on some job offers and still... well, live.
