If you are capable of staying employed long term. then yeah. You can balance even a basic hourly wage job with a more or less frugal lifestyle.

Problem is, a lot people either can't stay employed, or waste their money on stupid shyt. a smoking habit, and a drinking habit are generally what keeps a lot of people struggling.

In theory yes but in reality no, it might even be the opposite.

People really need to quit worrying about other people financial situation and worry about their own shyt, pocket watching ass bytches.

I could be broke. I could be rich. Unless you're very close to me, you will never know because I don't broadcast my financial situation to the world.

All of this. The people I know who are working and struggling never let us look at their entire financial situation. They just want to complain about the struggle and thats it. In order for someone to help, they have to share how much they make and what they spend their money on.

what about:

-felonies
-drug or alcohol problems
-mental ilness (depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, autism, PTSD, etc.)
-physical impairment
-obesity

also some people just want the bare minimum and that's ok. What is struggling to one person is more than enough to another.

The people without kids, what y’all be spending y’all money on to be struggling? :mjlol:

The classroom supplies, food (tutoring/Saturday school), additional education, and CONSTANT certifications that have to be updated every few years to teach, for starters. And I *still* have a side gig tutoring.

also some people just want the bare minimum and that's ok. What is struggling to one person is more than enough to another.

And even THAT'S starting to cost! The only reason I bought a house was b/c it was only $400 more a month than it would have cost to rent.

adults with kids have an unrealistic view of childless people at times.
