FYI What screams you are poor

[DezzyD]

God. Id have to say maybe smelling like cat piss or dog shit when animals airnt around. And most the time the animal isn't properly taken care of either so it gets bad they just can't tell. (My dad's house was terrible. Imagine 8 kids 2 adults 4 cats and one big outside dog that never got bathed because "it's a dog")
Let's see. Oh knock off foods I got picked on for that. Uhm. Never having money for the book fair that got me called poor. Big one is duck taped shoes. We only got one new pair a year for school so if you ruined them you got the tape not a new pair. Never buying new clothes before. Always had hand me downs even down to underwear and socks which I considered new (new to me at least)
For some fucking reason walking. I got called poor for walking places instead of driving a car everywhere even if its to the road over.
I had the same tooth brush for over 5 years at one point. Oddly enough got called poor because we went to church every Sunday (they had a meal for people who stay all day)
Schools summer lunch program
Oh god.. the shame I would feel walking into the food bank or Christmas angel just to get maybe a gift or two that year. (Remember 8 kids)

in sure there's more.
I'll come back later if I remember any haha

Miller highlife with lime. Young guy in front of me at the grocery store, mostly healthy food and a lot of diapers. Reminded me of a poor time in my life.
Not that corona is anything great, but I offered him a six pack. If he put the Miller highlife back, he gladly accepted and thanked me.

One of the wealthiest people I know drives a 99 ford ranger and has the same furniture from the 70s when he bought his house. Very frugal. Which is part of why he’s wealthy - you don’t stay rich if you spend it on stupid shit.

what's the fkn point then.... you can't take it with you

Idk, I think he grew up poor so his mindset is ‘save it for a rainy day’ or something.

I'm so poor I can't afford an in-house sommelier.

Driving an american made mini van.

Sometimes when you eventually have a lot of money, you stop giving a fuck what anybody thinks and if you’re comfortable with something and it works, you keep it even if it is old.
The only reason I got rid of my 14-year-old car is that it was just falling apart so I bought a new fancy one and I really miss my old one because it was simple and it worked.

so was this 14 yo car working or was it just falling apart? Maybe both at the same time?

 

[methedup77]

There’s a few on the list I do. I’m NOT poor. Unless 6 figures is poor? But from what I understand I’m in the top 10% lol. I’m a cheap bastard. It’s HOW you get rich.

I didn't grow up poor but I answer yes to #2 (I'm a person that would give the shirt off my back to those I know and care about. Even bought food for homeless folks in my area) & #4 and then I said fuck this gay panda site you constantly make threads about.

That's right, Jorge. You must have felt so privileged growing up in the biggest mud hut back home in your ancestral village in Mexico and being the only family in the village who could afford shoes. You're so humble I bet that not once did you swagger unnecessarily and lord it over the other children on those days when it was your turn to wear the family pair of shoes.

You can attempt to talk shit all you want Norme DeDickyLittle. My parents owned a successful mom and pop business til my dad finally decided to retire (in the US btw shitdick). You're a basement dwelling little pussy that cries online nonstop. Get help you useless waste of oxygen. Go cry about @Dirl another 70 times a day you bitch made faggot.

Jorge, my amigo, I believed you when you said your parents together ran a successful "mom and pop business." There was really no need to send me a treasured family photo as proof.

Still, Jorge, I'm glad you did because when I look at your photo I swear my eyes are welling with tears as I see a truly inspiring example of trying to live the Mexican Dream. Your mom must be beaming down from the big beaner brothel in the sky so proud her bruised knees, sore back and other sacrifices meant one day her little Jorge would be successfully juggling night and day dishwashing shifts at every cheap taqueria and biker joint in Sacramento.

Make Moma proud, Jorge. You hear me? You make her proud, son.

Now that's what I call the story
of a little family business with
a true happy ending.​

 

[savgbeast]

We weren't poor but we had to really stretch our dollars growing up. I'll wash and reuse the same styrofoam cup for days; done that all my adult life.
My (very well off) older brother will wash and reuse the same red solo cup for days. He's done that all his adult life. Neither of us knew the other did that until this past year.

I was actually thinking of finally following my childish dreams and breaking into the highly competitive world of dishwashing. Jorge, would you be able to give me a few pointers or even do me a total solid and utilise your network to make a few calls for me, amigo?

Never been a dishwasher Norme DeDickyLittle. I wash my dishes at home...you live with your parents so ask them for pointers. Keep failing at your troll attempts you jobless, basement dwelling faggot. Your shit talk is sadder than your pathetic existence.
