>>928263This. "Poor" people usually have a bunch of material shit I couldn't even dream of. Really nice cars, all the latest phones, 100$ shoes, designer clothes, go out for food and drinks every day, always buying coffee out, macbooks and all manner of stuff.
I have a $1000 used car, a $550 laptop, and cook every meal for myself. Phone is a refurbished older model (that I take damn good care of. Got it an otterbox and keep it in a cloth bag so it won't get scratched.) If I don't have cash in my account for something, I don't fucking buy it.
Poor people, and god knows I grew up poor and everyone I know is poor, they all have spending issues. They buy buy buy yet value nothing. I take care of my shit (reasonably well at least.). They just beat the crap out of their stuff they spent bank on, throw it around, and buy new stuff when it breaks.
If it's worth the cost, I spend the money. Just very seldom do I need to buy anything. They buy wants, not needs.
Then they think it isnt fair that I have money and they don't, when they just blow all their cash while I frugal like a motherfucker.
The poor are a bunch of cockroaches. Every last one deserves to be where they are because they made poor decisions. I know people who can't afford groceries, but are always buying a new car or boat or are going on vacation or getting some new gadget, and their kids all have nice new phones and handhelds and Nikes. I don't have nikes. I "can't afford", even though I have $50 extra sitting unused in my account, to spend it on shoes.
Despite my parents being a goddamned nightmare for me and never supporting me or helping me while I was in college, I'm a senior now, set to get a good job, and they already have their hands out. "Oh anon you're gonna spread the wealth right? He he he." I just remind them I have loans to pay off. But fuck them, really, fuck them. I scrimp and save to get this and work my ass off. They just fuck around. I taught myself everything
