Life!
 

This is for all you happy people who have no idea what it's like to be broke as fuck..

Two kids, diapers, wipes, food, snacks. School meals, uniforms, parties, presents, birthday's, Christmas..

Our household income is less than you would spend on the cinema on a Saturday night yet we carry on, we continue. We believe, we risk it all, we fight the system.

i'm 35yo and still no kids ... was a good choice, right ? :P

Wrong! kids will kill your hope, they will rape your present.. They will steal your future but honestly if you carry on life without kids at some point you will wonder your past..

Sell the kids. I got serious cash for mine.

hahahahaha :P

Children are the ultimate parasites. The take all of your energy and money but just leave you enough to live.... to continue to serve them :)

Out of all the problems that you can have in life, money is one of the easiest to solve.


.

make more kids and they you will be rich when that all start workng

Where are you from?

The pullout method always works

Most successful people here probably started broke as fuck. The other 99% still are.

Just work harder. Simple really. Good luck.

Married Life :2 cents:

There was a time in life when I was homeless.... never doing that again.

I've been completely destitute, and it lasted for quite a long time. If that's where you are in life, it should be the best motivation there can possibly be to better yourself. That's the way it worked for me. And now, after much hard work and invested time, money and the price of anything I want is not even an issue in my life anymore.

Being bitter about how much better other people's lives may be is wasted energy. If anything, see it as where you'll be once you've succeeded in life. Redirect your energy into bettering yourself, focus on it, and let it be the absolute prime goal in your life. Wake up thinking about it, go to bed thinking about it, and devote any spare time in your day thinking about it.

more of, that's what you call, Man of the House.
Responsible father. Period.

Congrats on getting out of that. There are a couple of other people on here who have managed that as well. Each rung down on the ladder makes it more difficult to climb out. What was your first step out? How did you find the strength to do what was necessary?

43 no kids...best decision ever!

But who will take up the mantle of being the best damn critic the USA has ever had? You can't let everything you've built fall into the wrong hands. Will your successor take care to notice and magnify every single flaw? Will they endlessly post about every perceived slight? Will they sedulously fail to ever mention anything the USA has done well? I worry that the reputation for unceasing and energetic criticism that you have carefully built here on the internet might not flourish in the hands of any less devoted deprecator.

I never hear people complain about the cost of houses and cars...
I quess when it's bling bling people don't care to bend over for it...

True dat

Wise words! :thumbsup

Keep up the fight Smack dat, this is going to make you stronger, I believe in you and I know you'll get where you want to be in the end :thumbsup

Its not a remedy for poverty but there are sooo many ways to save money:)

drink water from the tap dont drink anything else cause its all bloody sugar anyway.

Use candles when chilling in the living room its much better for your sleep right after anyway.

Take the damn train/bus or if you need the car drive sensibly and save on gas.

Short showers and tap off while brushing teeth.. check all the damn leakings in the house and fix them :)

Get up early and work on your damn websites and make some money in affiliate marketing pushing cam offers. It works everytime if you don't give up ;)

As long as the water is not fluoridated in your area

Many candles give out toxic fumes due to the paraffin wax, go for beeswax

Where the OP lives the train/bus are unnecessarily costly due to privatization

Yep, completely agreed :thumbsup
