Why do "poor" people always have money for beer, cigarettes, cell phones and drugs?
>>
They don't have any bills.
>>
Way of relieving stress for the work and money problems they have. I'm not defending them though
>>
because living paycheque to paycheque requires opiates, so that shit is kept pretty cheap relative to any kind of change in the social order.

what, are you gonna scrimp and save your beer money for months so you'll have a couple hundred dollars for... what? probably will still have a shit job and a shit place and own nothing, in the mean time, shit is shitty, a beer and watching the game sure would take the edge off

When I was poor, I didn't drink and didn't smoke. It was before cell phones, but I did have a land line. You needed one if you wanted to find work.

Until you've worked a shit job and lived on the "income" you'll never get it. The stresses of your life are petty bullshit by comparison. I would know, I clawed my way up from being a retail sales clerk.

Grew up in mostly rich suburb, but there was one trailer park in the district.

One of the trailers would always boast about all the great shit her parents bought. 60" flat screens, tickle me elmo, latest consoles, etc.

At the time, she claimed to have lots more/better stuff than the rich people I knew.

Yet, there were 7 people living in that tiny piece of shit trailer.

She didn't graduate high school.

Because bad decisions and impulse control are a big part of the reason they're poor. If they didn't spend on cigs, booze, lottery tickets, opiates, rented furniture, and whatever other frivolous shit they have but can't afford, they wouldn't be so poor.

A pack is between $5-10. A pack a day for a month is between $150-300. For a year, that's $1800-3600.

What could the rich only 200 years ago even understand of the wealth of todays poor? Probably the cigs and booze.

Just making a goddam phone call couldnt be bought for any price, in lives or treasure. Why wouldnt you have a phone at any price today, even if the $50/mth for the service was half your income?

How can we even imagine the blessings the poor will enjoy in only 20 years, much less 200, that you could not obtain with all your wealth today?
>>
Can't say about cell phones but beer, cigs and drugs are kinda cheap, and when everything you make goes towards debt, food, and shit, you don't get a whole lot of extra spending cash.
Or are you trying to say people can't have some sort of escape or enjoyment. just because you don't smoke doesn't mean somebody else can't do it. same for beer or drugs or anything else for that matter.

>never been poor
You don't know me. But I'll tell you that I was "poor".

I worked restaurants, meat cutter, delivered pizzas, chopped logs, mowed lawns, cleaned cars since I was 15 years old. I dropped outta highschool cause I hated the world and I believed the world hated me.

I worked the makelines slapping out sandwiches with nothing on my mind but contempt for the man that owned the restaurant.

When I was 21 I was sleeping under an overpass. I had one joy in life and it existed in the form of a bottle of liqour.

I spent 37 days in county for some stupid shit, and 18 months probation. I tried to " rage against the machine" for the better part of my 20s.


I got tired. I was tired of being a worthless sack of shit. I was tired of walking 4 miles to go earn $7/hr, only to have to walk 4 miles back.

I started taking initiative... I washed the cars faster. I approached the owner. I told him I hated where I was. He bought me a camera, a nikon D50. He let me take pictures of the cars to post online.

Months later I was selling cars on the weekends to help pay him back.

Months after that, I got rehired on as a salesman. I cleared $40k my first year, which was more than I'd ever made...

Long story short, a couple years later, after some different choices, I have my own trucking business. Just 3 trucks, but I cleared $134k profit last year.

So fuck you. And fuck college. I ended up getting my GED and going back. It's a fucking scam. It's all a bunch of selfish brats being spoonfed an entitlement mentality. They graduate and are WORSE off than they were before.

I just love the conceit that poverty isn't as bad in developed nations, like there's no people begging on the streets, forced to wear soiled/dirty clothes, going days without a proper meal, etc. You really should look into what's going on in your own/town city before discussing poverty elsewhere...

you can't teach another person how to be successful in life. It's a journey that you have to be ready and willing to embark on, and most people aren't.

You have to be relentless in your pursuit... unaffected by failure, and always optimistic in your approach, with a reasonable understanding of risk.

all of those things excet cell phones and drugs dont cost very much, as if poor people couldnt afford them they would kill the rich. They are affordable as they are a way to sedate the angry mob. Plus they cost next to nothing to make so people get rich from it.

Cell phones have contracts that make rich people more money, and drugs are illegal so some people can get caught, go to jail and make rich people money.

Yeah. Shit is cash.

They get government handouts which cover their bills.

Their bills are lower because of government subsidized housing.

Aforementioned free money goes toward drugs, cigarettes, and alcohol instead of food and clothing.

A lot are poor because of their substance abuse/poor money management skills, otherwise they'd be lower middle class.

Unless they are third world, even then to some extent, they actually have it really easy. They have next to no responsibility, plenty of handouts, don't have to work. I know many obese poor people, who gorge on food stamps and church meals.
They are mostly lazy, stupid, and materialistic. Pretty much everything they accuse of the middle class, whom they believe are the "1%"

They're poor partially because of these things.

Poor people tell themselves they "deserve" these nice things, like iphones and huge data plans. I've noticed a telltale sign of poor people is that their TV is always on, always playing something, even with nobody home. When they move, the cable/satellite is always the first concern. Even before unpacking.

It does, just to varying degrees, and via varied mechanisms. Phones are cheap compared to the price youd pay for comparable service a few decades ago because economies of scale, and this is why poor people can have them.

My problem isn't that they come from a different political ideology than my own, it is that they are so unwilling to listen and are used to pulling each others' cocks in a circle and thinking that makes them intellectual.

Being poor has little to do with money.

It's an attitude and a mindset.

Swallow truth neckbeards.

>>686039340
>Why do "poor" people always have money for beer, cigarettes, cell phones and drugs?

Because there is a reason they are (or rather: stay) poor.
Notice how they also always seem to have the newest iPhone, an expensive phone contract they don't need as well as Nike clothing.

Just because you can't live without fogging your brain, does not mean that other people can't.

It's the same in Maryland. All my friends when we graduated highschool got FAFSA assistance and went to school for one semester and complained about how much money it was. I on the other hand had to pay for my own car payment and insurance ($500 a month) and pay for my own "rent" and phone plan along with my own groceries. My family makes just enough money to scrape by. We always have all my life but I am glad to say my parents never once relied on the gov't to help us out. We always stuck it through whether that be another job for my mom, dad, or me or taking ungodly amounts of overtime just to be able to pay for the fucking electric. While my friends wouldnt go back to school because they couldnt afford their books while they spent all their money on fucking drugs and what not for either them or their parents. But i forked up ungodly amounts of money straight from my pocket just in the hope that I could get somewhere at the end of it. Now im making 80k a year to simply sit on my ass and take calls from overseas and bullshit around for 8 hours a day. And I can honestly say im blessed that i went from working at fucking amazon all night long and then rushing home hoping i can sleep for a few hours before I went and flipped paddies for the morning shift at mcdonalds and then going to my classes all afternoon before I went back to slave away at Jeff Bezos fun house.

I am currently doing this, and I have to say it's not easy, but most people aren't willing to put in the time. I work 2 jobs, am an RA to get free room and board, and I still struggle to pay for all of my school bills and feed myself. I haven't taken out a single loan for school and I struggle to get by, very much like it was during my childhood.

I'm not even aiming for a high paying job, ultimately just wanna work park services or become a park ranger. It would be nice to make triple digits, but I'm certainly not shaming anyone else for the life they live, it's just a matter about how much they fucking whine about it.

Just like I said in the TL:DR, Dude don't even fucking consider giving up. You can be dead ass fucking tired and know you only got 3 hours of sleep but you still have to go to one of your jobs and/or class right after/before. Just dont give up it will pay off. I went to school just for some simple electrical knowledge but because my moms work is centered around engineering and r&d I caught a fantastic break and they had an opening for a job that was semi related to my degree and they gave me the job simply because they saw how my mothers work ethic was and I cant stop saying how thankful I am for it. Im gonna say it again DONT GIVE UP, KEEP PUSHING, YOU CAN AND WILL MAKE IT.
