If you can't afford it, don't buy it. Stop blaming the companies who are offering value to others

😂

I am unemployed and handicapped.

I was going to comment on that too.

Yeah, he does sound like a preacher.

Yes. I mean, he's just making jokes here, but it's sad that some people really do think this way. My opinion: He's just poor, but he doesn't know how to be poor. I've been laid off before. • How's he eating bacon & eggs if he's broke?! 🤨 Even if you have it in the fridge or freezer when you loose your job, I wouldn't waste it on one serving of one meal. You could use one rasher of bacon to flavor a whole dish with multiple servings. You could use the egg to make fried rice, or to bake something. • And I definitely don't go to any kind of restaurant if I'm that poor (not even the dollar menu -- if they still have those!). • When I was laid off, I was fortunate enough to have some savings, but I still stopped spending except for the cheapest groceries that can be stretched the furthest, like rice, beans, potatoes, carrots, zucchini. No dairy, or packaged foods. Only drink water (from the tap). • I looked in the pantry, fridge, & freezer to see what I had on hand first, and how I could make the best use of it. I got creative with things I had like mixing salsa, black beans, & corn together. If I had chips, it was a dip -- if not, it was soup. I still remember the feeling of walking into the grocery store, after I finally found a new job. I was so happy I could afford to buy cheese, or ice cream, or anything I wanted (within reason, of course). It was a profound feeling of freedom & gratitude. • You can also ask your family & friends for help. Even if they can't loan you money, they could probably have you over for dinner. Most people's mom would be happy to have them come by to visit. Maybe you know someone with a fruit tree in their yard. • See if there are community resources, like unemployment, food stamps, community gardens or backyard fruit sharing programs, soup kitchens, or food banks. If you belong to a church, you can see if they can help you. • If you're really broke, you can cancel your internet & use the library. If you can't pay your bills, you can call & ask for an extended grace period, a payment plan, or see if they will waive late fees. You can ask about a less expensive basic service plan. There are a lot of things you can do to stretch your budget & resources.

​@@miriamrobarts Bingo! I've been in the "I can't afford luxuries" position before even though I was working, I didn't make much yet I managed to pay for my car, feed my pets and myself, car insurance after a little help from my parents and gas in my car upon ending my marriage to my ex husband. I didn't have rent or utilities to pay since I lived in my parents'house but when your job only pays $125 a week on average and gas was over $4 a gallon, you better know how to stretch a dollar.

Yep, I've been poor and would be considered poor right now. I don't eat out. I don't go anywhere to get anything if I don't really need it and I have money in the bank and cash on hand because poor doesn't mean you just don't pay your bills and eat out all the time instead.

He’s talking about overdraft fees. That’s how you pay $55 for a McDouble

@@Snappldel ya, those are some high overdraft fees!! I thought $25 was high Anyway I get it

I have sent a couple of complaints to Drybar about all the butt profile photo bots and they answered with, "how do we know you are not a bot?". Unbelievable.

@@edithdlp8045 They probably paid some bot farm to give them more engagement.

What is bots

@@edithdlp8045😂😭

What you mean?

He’s a comedian making jokes

Thanks for sharing. The Internet really cares.

@@LP-wl8pw Why are you hiding behind the "Internet" instead of owning your own opinion? If you disagree, fine. Geez.
