My fiancee currently has a Samsung J3 Luna Pro straight talk phone that is being a mega PITA. She is looking for something simple and saw that Wal-Mart has the ZTE majesty pro for 30 bucks, but I noticed it says it allows tethering how much are you allowed to tether on this phone if you have the Straight Talk $55 unlimited plan just kind of curious and asking for my fiance.

Tethering is tethering, should not matter how much you can tether. basically once you tether(hotspot I assume), the device is sharing it connection to other device. The original device (sim) only sees data being used and should not care how much is being shared). I have a 10GB plan and have not yet o over when hotspotting to two other devices that are wifi only for me.
