Nearly 40% of Americans can't cover a surprise $400 expense

Syrian Refugees Think North St. Louis Is Worse Than A Refugee Camp

There will always be an outlier of someones opinion.

Its crazy that people think its just poor spending habits.

Some of you really have your heads in the sand. And the sad part is instead of trying to fix the economy and redistribute wealth, people that "made it" would rather there be a bottom class they can always shyt on. This shyt really matters to them and their ego.

It really is crazy ain't it, to believe that most folk are terrible at finances instead of the obvious, which is most people just don't get paid a liveable wage.

Numbers seem a bit far fetched. 40%
With that said it’s a debt based society so ehh.
It makes u wonder why we torture ourselves listening to music that degrades anyone not driving a foreign or wearing Gucci

Yep what's even crazier is alot of people that are one sickness away from being a have not help vote the politicians that reinforce giving more to the rich.

I travel all over the world so yes, have you? Theres mile long stretches in usa with homeless people, you have places in usa without clean running water, and you have people dying because they cant cant a medication. What developed country is like this?

These nikkaz never seen most of america let alone been out of the country

Southern California is a shythole for the most part, most places are in the middle of nowhere, LA has a homeless problem you will find in any other major city in a first world country, downtown LA smells like PISS

LAX looks like it hasn't been updated since the 1960s,

Outside of San Francisco, Manhattan, Downtown Chicago, South Beach, America doesn't have any modern buildings, everything like the same since the 1970s

Every state is mostly rural areas where poverty runs rampant, the city areas are very little spaces in each state, not the majority of what that state is like

Okay take the philipines, the people are poor but they are much happier than people in the united states overall, and don't need money to be happy

rich people are still miserable in the United States, there's not a single poor area in this country where people are happy, America has a different type of poverty

when people see those africans who need water and shyt, that is not the norm of the continent, africa is so big and is still recovering from wars, you will have people isolated in this type of situations

Who is actually shocked by this, people are not saving and continue to live above their means . Why prepare for emergencies when you can always charge it ?


I'm really wondering about this next recession, the internet era is not built for this shyt - lotta "influencers" and "content creators" will be outta work

 

[MoneyTron]

Very believable.

Many people's spending habits are not optimal. Other people are good with money but with kids, healthcare, housing, etc. can't save enough given their income.

Its tough out there.

Man I have never seen so many concentrated homeless people in other major cities that are home to some of the wealthiest people in the country.I have been to london,paris and I have only seen a handful.

You're still describing individual situations, not an entire scope.

Nobody can say America is like a third world country. America has the resources to ensure every American has the necessities needed for life. A third world country does not have this capability.

 

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

True, but despite that , even what drips down from the top is better than most places. That’s why You got millions of people risking there life and that of there family members life just to get a chance to get there own little piece of America.

Better than what places? Better than other 3rd world countries? Perhaps, better than 1st world countries? NOPE

Facts. Or one natural disaster away.

Breh America's poverty looks like Beverly Hills compared to other places, stop it

What 1st world country have you been to that looks like the worst parts of usa?
