In 07...right in that little gap when i was done with the streets and my drug money had dried up and a few weeks before i started my lowly helpdesk job...had just enough money for rent...so i had to stretch like 80 dollars for 3 weeks...
Ramen noodles and faucet water 4 or 5 days a week...mcdonalds might wings and small fry the rest of the week...
Mighty wings and small fry was 3.98...I asked one chick why it was so cheap...she said it was cause "they were trying to get rid of the chicken"...i was super...
One time I walked in and one of the girls who always worked their saw me and yelled out "YOU WANT THEM MIGHTY WINGS HUH"
I also had two 2 gallon things of milk at the time...not sure why...they were about to expire and i couldn't have that...money wasted...so i bought some cheap ass cereal and ate it over like a week straight...
It was the first week I started my job and I didn't get my first paycheck until 3 weeks...So I ate two bowls for breakfast...then at lunch drove home and ate one bowl...then two more bowels for dinner and depending on how fukked up my stomach was...another bowl before bed...
Between Ramen and Mighty Wings and Milk...thought I was going to die...the stuff that was coming out of my body...man
I also quit all drugs cold turkey cause I was scared I was going to be drugged tested...and i was smoking weed...popping pills...doing coke...man...quitting cold turkey was
There were times when I got home...ate cereal...was so paranoid from withdrawals that i would just pace around my little ass apartment with a gun...for no reason at all...not sleep AT ALL...go to work...basically spend 3 hours taking a shyt...then go home and eat a bowl of cereal...
I look back now like...how i live through this shyt and it's people who live like this EVERYDAY 
And that is nothing compared to the shyt my wife went through when she came to america...she was straight up sleeping on random park benches for awhile and almost got forced into prostitution...
Also this other Russian chick I knew who came to the states with basically nothing and was staying at this hotel and was letting this goblin looking dude fukk her for free

Back when I had my first kid we and my now wife fukked up not paying the electricity bill all winter ( in cold states they can't shut you off when it's winter) our bill ended up being over grand and we had to pay it. Well we did and we were left with nothing for a week. I would call random fast food restaurants and make a fake complaint to get us a free meal. Used to home and one would have Arby's, one Taco Bell and one McDonald's. Glad those times are gone shyt was rough.
shyt was mad depressing and I felt horrible but we had to eat. Least I didn't stick anyone up
gotta do what you gotta do. Respect.
We gone get right my nikkas just keep going

I got some stories...
When I was a senior in high school me and my cousin and friend would go to this Chinese buffet that you paid after you ate instead of before. None of us had enough money to eat for one person let alone three of us. Anyways we ate good that day got some to go boxes to have something to eat for the next day or so. My cousin and I were going to walk out and say we were going to smoke a cigarette and our homie was going to pay the bill. Our homeboy would then walk towards the front to pay and sprint out without paying. We figured if he got caught they would make him wash dishes or something. Well me and cousin walked out to pretend to smoke and ran across the street to a grocery store across the street to wait for our friend. Well we kept waiting for him to come out. This was in 2001 before we all had cellphones so we couldn't call him. Next thing we know we saw the police pull up and the cops walked in and 15 minutes later we saw our homeboy being escorted out in cuffs and taken to jail! He ended up getting only a misdemeanor or something.

Another time was when I was in college. I was working as a security guard and didn't make much but I made enough to pay my bills. Basically after paying bills and having money for groceries I wouldn't have much left. Well my job cut my hours and so now I basically had made enough to pay rent, lights. I had to let my car go and catch the bus, cut cable, and other luxuries. My security post that I worked used to always provide donuts everyday and so I would take a bunch of donuts home with me and that would basically be my breakfast, lunch and dinner. One day I went to McDonald's and wanted to buy those .99 cheeseburgers but I overdrafted my account and couldn't buy burgers. The cashier felt sorry for me and gave me some burgers and fries for free.

When my account was in the red about $800 and I had to get a credit card to pay my bills. Domino's held ya boy down. Walk in at 6 without having eaten all day and seeing a box of cold pizza that someone ordered and didn't pick up.
getting just enough in tips to pay for a loaf of bread, 4 cans of chicken, and my metro card for my other job. Donating plasma on 1 scrambled egg and spending $10 on McDonald's once the money deposited into the card. Spend the rest of that money on gas and cereal, check the balance and hit the . Then the 2 months of gi bill backpay hit along with the main work check and Domino's side check right before rent was due. 
had everything paid off and in the green. I'm living right now.

I was 18 sleeping on my boys floor high as hell off like 5 chocolate rillos. I ate plain tortillas while nestled in a sleeping bag in an empty livingroom off the Alameda in e. Bmore. Extremely low point but some of the funnest days of my life.
And I was probably wearing $340 jeans
One of the dudes who used to come through on the daily used to flip Vicks of sour
Looked like he was selling flats when he pinched off something for a sell

2008 in college in Alabama, they had a few of us staying in hotels because they ran out of rooms on campus. It was the afternoon and I had my first car, a old 1989 honda...it wasnt shyt but it got me from point A to point B.
During this time gas was $5 a gallon and I was broke. Tank was on E and I looked for change laying around to see what I could get, and I came up with 70 cents. The look of disgust on the cashiers face when I went in and asked for 70 cents on pump 3
Had just enough to make it to campus, but I knew once I got there someone would give me gas money cause nikkas would always ask for rides to the mall or someones apartment.
