I was an Econ major. Preaching to the choir. I just had horrible saving habits in my early 20s.
How do people with a job literally have ZERO money in their bank?

I wouldn't even allocate myself $200 a month strictly for entertainment, cuz I wouldn't spend that much.

I overspend on eating out. 
A bag of tilapia cost the same as one or two meals at a restaurant I might hit up frequently.

Like many are saying financial responsibility, and planning come easy to few….and difficult to many, for many different reasons. And, everyone has different ideas, depending on so many factors,how to handle money. Some have a completely opposite view of how to handle their finances….alot comes with education, educating yourself on fiscal planning, and whatever else... and who your influences are. I have those friends that do the 'Dame Dash' where they are constantly broke, because they always overextend, and put all their paper into their ventures…leaving no cushion…..others, because of their familial background, and relative ignorance of money and finance, have M3's, and profitable family businesses but might borrow a stack or to from, me for non emergency purposes.
Others make a lot of money, but spent it as quick as it comes. Or don't know how to diversify. Or put money aside. It's just a free for all. Some just don't make very much, and are still rather irresponsible with their money. For me, 'broke' is when I don't have much discretionary funds at that moment….not when I have nothing. But, having no money is a reality to many, for variety of reasons….some I can emphasize with, others I cannot. That's crazy pressure to not have even $500 in the bank, and I know for some it's like a rush, who fukking cares mindset, they will spend their last $100 and wake up with nothing. Some are eternal optimists, who buy heavy into the American dream, that one day they will 'make it', and petty payday problems will be a thing of the past. People often underestimate how difficult responsible finance is. I am far from some type of fiscal genius, or anything close, but I learned how to handle and manage money in my early teens..when you don't have fam to help, and it's all on you, you HAVE to know those things, or you will always poor, one way or another.

Nikka this is Amerikkka, land of blood sucking capitalists. The paychecks nowadays and the SAVINGS end up getting snaked from you in someway anyway. That's Capitalism. It guises you into thinking your Hard Work pays off, when it really takes your money right when you get it. Nikkas barely have enough time to blink before the money is gone back into the system for something or to someone. Work isn't paying off or rewarding in 2015 Amerikkka, because its not supposed to. You are a commodity to them, just as they set it up for. Its slavery by another name, but fools you into thinking you actually free, but still have a "OWNER" and a "Plantation", just under different names.
