Why are most people broke?

There is sharks trying to make loan offers, brides, gifts-with-strings-attached…. etc…

I had a nightmare version of happiness and love and sex… such as no-dating, disgust from woman, being too old now, too short, too fat, too ugly, and now, the dating pool is like a dumpster on fire….

but not me.

How does Arab culture and values differ from western culture and values?

I DID NOT HAVE THE THINGS people bitttched, moaned, groaned, and whined, and ruined themselves….about…

I was poor. I had the police trying to shake me down sometimes, my boss breathing down the neck, the other races hating , disliking me, the jealous people trying to ruin my little happiness, the fake friends who wanted company for their misery, trying to get me fired or sabotage my life, the druggies trying to lure me into their dark, dank, hopeless world… the bullies trying to muscle their way into destroying my life. And, I had some people trying to recruit me for their jobs, profession, career path, etc…

but anyway, am thankful that am on “EASY street” now…

Was Michael Jackson really an innocent person?

Because, rather than tell you 10,000 ways people become broke, i rather tell you the simple things that make you rich.

I grew up poor and penny-less. When I was 16 working my minimum wage job. My bank account balance was less than 4$….

Life happens to all of us. I been hit with problems , bumps, challenges, etc…. but my buffer zone when the boat rocks saves me.

What is the story behind bhai dooj?

Then, You know, From my point of view, I get to watch “ rich people” smooth sailing, protected in their big house, food, shelter, lights, comforts , and guidance provided by parents…. who have the time and day and energy to care for them.. lol

My friend had a video game system, fresh clothes, nice food, nice apartment, etc… but you know, i was his poor friend.

After you save up , rainy-day money, fun money, you also increase - investing money.

What is a good habit and what is bad one?

This affords you the opportunity to go do whatever you like and not even really care if the building is burning down. You can be like that dog meme with the house on fire, saying “ its fine”

But, my body hurts. my arm hurts, my knees hurt, my back hurts.

I guess, they say “ EASY COME , EASY GO” so you know, my friends pissed it away…ruined their golden opportunity, did drugs, partied, did alcohol, etc… ironic…

Have you ever had sex with your female cousin? How did it start?

but they say “ god gives his strongest soldiers the biggest challenge”

Then, after you save about 6 months worth of your monthly needs, you invest a bit more, and give your self more than a “WIGGLE ROOM” but room to breathe, and if anything like “car breaking down” or getting a parking ticket or whatever doesn’t cause a crisis or make you juggle your bills and rent and food…

Because, they cant stop themselves.

Why do men like to have sex with a woman's ass?

Yea, I know, if your rich, and got daddy and a team to protect you and your dreams and ambitions and got connections and family ties…..life is going to be a smooth-sailing life…

If you are poor and hoping for a better life. Look no further than the “man in the mirror”

And, No, If I had better option of friends, rather than my druggy, drunk, and crazy, psychopathic friends…well, i probably would of chosen better.

Is the saying "nice guys finish last" true? Can good intentions always lead to positive outcomes?

After 7th grade, i did not get a allowance…like my friends…so they dumped me. lol

And, so you know, that helped me …. from making the same-mistakes?

You dont start spending… Now, you got to build up a saving nest, invest a bit, try to make more money.

Why do people see porn pics when they can watch porn videos instead?

I guess, in a way, he was like the royalty and I was like a “peasant” on the bleachers or side line, hoping for “bread” in the circus of life.

Work hard, save, invest then have fun.

so i isolated alot, studied books at the library, felt like i was already in jail without committing a crime.

Its year 2041, and president Hunter Biden has ordered every republican who sweared at him to be arrested and shot. I am on my way to the death row listening to the cheer of the Liberal mob chanting death death death. How can I escape?

As I become richer, or got bigger pay or bigger job, my 90% spend on expenses went down gradually over the years, to like 30% Then, my saving gone-up, and also my fun money.

What, I noticed in most people is : FUN GOES OUT “LAST” kinda like, the homeless still buying beer, drugs and partying and smoking

You do your job and go home. You dont got to worry about the company future, paying your insurance, scam artist , thieves, managing people, making sure your employees are safe, paid, etc..

Why is blood sugar ranging from 70-180 in a day and checked through a glucometer?

He was the rich kid with parent -family problems and he would do drugs, drink, smoke and was a really fun guy to hang around with in high school. He hated responsibility, hated his parents, and loved to do bad things. I was the poor friend that just had nothing better to do than watch him or be entertained by his life-style. I was too poor. My pocket empty. I could sit in my room with zero money and read books for free at the library…or go for walks, watch my friend drink, smoke, have strange conversation, watch him do drugs, and it was interesting observing and studying him.

Thats some “reality check” I swallowed as a teenager… one of the hardest pill to swallow.

dating, sex, romance, job, career,

What are your political and economic beliefs? How did you form them, especially in comparison to those who hold opposing views?

Anyway, I would get paid, working almost full time. And get like 600$ at the time. at 16 year old …that was alot of money to me. I bought food, essentials and saved like 300$. =D

Yea, so I wore “ good will donation clothes” because you know, i guess, i was poor or a begger?

Being broke means, I got dumped by all my friends…and woman gave me zero chance. HAHAHAHAAHh

What does it mean when you dream that your mother died?

I was grinding my minimum wage job…busting my back, scrubbing dishes, cooking, taking out the trash.

And, they both could not understand each other, and were “distant worlds apart”

If you can work hard, be disciplined, make sacrifices, swallow some hard truth, endure, take the pain, the punishment, the sadness, smile thru the darkness, fall 7 times and get up 9 times…. have the courage to accept the things you can change, and have the understanding to “LET GO” of the things you cannot change….” you should be alright…

How can I get my ex-husband to love me again?

My mexican friends dumped me because I was broke, and my asian friends dumped me because I was broke.

Anyway, after I got a job, I did not want to be “Poor” any more. hahahahaha lol . So, when I got my paycheck I was careful to save, invest, etc… I learned the mistakes of people by how they “GROAN AND MOAN “ about having kids too early, not making enough for bills, gas being expensive, girlfriend problems, drug problems, etc… I mean, people literally tell you how they “RUINED” their lives.

Step 2 - Just cause you got a raise, dont mean you do a “life style creep” up… What i mean is:

What factors may contribute to intelligent individuals identifying as Republican rather than Democrat in the United States today?

but it sure keeps me from having a miserable time.

Life aint no perfect place. I got a ton of things to whine and complain about. Things to mold me .

But, I saved my money, and my friend, went to the mall, bought some clothes, fun things… then, he bought some drugs, alcohol, and he invite a group of friends to hang out at the park or whatever “spot” and he would smoke, drink, do drugs, and spend all his money. (He was broke all the time. )

The eco-system is crazy for one-small-fish, like me.

but am kinda old, they old, and the thrill is gone, the light is gone from their eyes, from having failed relationships, many sex partners etcs….

As a renter, you can just skip town if you like or move to another location any time.

For rule number one!

They said “ everytime we wanna go eat or do something, you have no money!” and fair enough, i was broke, so my friends dumped me. lol

As life problems and obstacles happen…. The first thing that goes for me is : fun time.

but not me…

This is just a based-on-a-true-story of my life. LOL hahahahah

or doing drugs and fighting parents, and ruining the things you have…..

Dealt with racism, politics, sabotage, fake friends, haters, favoritism, unfairness, crooked people, cheaters, liars, etc…

Living my unique life. Going thru the good-times and the bad times…and the ugly times..

My friends slowly were figuring it out how lucky they had it. Some striaghtened out….some stopped bragging to me.. I was slowly grinding… and life threw some curve balls, and kept trying to shake me off.

My friends would love to work, get a job, then PARTY or whatever… then, when they lose their job…or pay.. They are struggling hard to find a job or work or whatever..and they still continue to drink and party a bit, even without a job…and stay broke and mad and blame the system.

But, in the end, am nothing but me. Just a dude… living one day at a time…

I failed school. But, that doesn’t mean its all bad. It means, I have zero to little responsibility. lol

In my 40 years, Everyone I met, has some excuse, reason, unreasonable attitude, resist reality, lazy, druggy, spoiled, etc. Insert the 1000 ways a fool becomes broke.

anyway, alot of opportunity to become rich…but who really cares about money

That 5% would give me wiggle-room when I was making minimum wage.

at first, at minimum wage, my bills , rent, car insurance, food, etc… was paid, the essentials…pretty much 90 to 95% of my money was gone, month to month.

lol ahahahahahah

But, no one wanted to be friends with me…especially because I had 0$…

It was almost as if there are TWO types of people in this world…THE HAVES and HAVE-NOT.

My life is pretty much on EASY STREET now… which makes me suspicious.

Jesus christ or i think the holy bible would give you quotes and there is many famous people with wise words…and am not here to gong that bell that no one seems to hear.

I rather prefer a easy life, a good wife, a good life, wayyy less pain in my body, etc..

although, some renters only look at the problem and see that they are finding it hard to afford rent, or whatever.

lol hahahahahahaha

lol hahahaha , maybe this is some twisted karma or revenge on my life.

Overall, I think people have a hard-time because they are not “ALIGNED” with reality. lol

I was working at some “burger” fast food place.. Then, slowly, and gradually , reality check came.

and taking it for granted.

My other teenager friends? Well, they also got a bag-boy job at a grocery store…they made minimum wage too..about 600$ -although my friend tried to 1 up me, and flex or brag that with O.T or he made 650$ or whatever…Anyway, we both got PAID about the same.

i hope a young hot woman would see me as a sexy short king and date me but , you know, thats probably just gonna be my “fantasy” that i never get to live.

YOu probably heard it before like “ BEGGERS CANT BE CHOOSERS” lol

and, well, my parents had zero money for me. lol So, I got a job.

Anyway, i got a job, and life goes on.

FUkk, reality sucks. But, i think, life or god or some miracle or the government rat theory or testing on me ceased and they let me “live a fantasy life now”

And, my poor friends would say “ rich people are lucky they have money or get envious and mad and jealous or think its unfair that others can have the same-problem” but it doesn’t affect the rich as much because they have-money.

Then, as you make more money, your fun money starts building up. Then, you have fun.

So, my choice of friends was “ traumatized, drunk, druggy, alcoholic, crazy, abusive friends” or homeless and beggers or isolation and myself.

Such as splurging or spending all your money at one place. Or being lazy, or partying too much…etc..

God, I hate that reality-check….

And most other people are simply ,living the dream for now.

#3 work hard, and save and invest

When life , Rocks me…like job loss or whatever… FUn goes out, then my investing, then my saving, then, am left with working hard….

maybe, its simply, the “reality” the reality-check and this is as good as it is…

That pretty much makes you rich. Worked for me.

I had hope. But I realistically realized, i have hope…but its gonna suck, and hard, and its pretty much nearly impossible to Thrive in this world.

yet, am not depressed or sad…

Beggers cant be chooser..

#1 live within your means

It challenged me to find grit, save, invest, and didnt matter to me how others had a early start, head-start, or whatever..or how others did it…like them “becoming drug dealers, criminals, liars, thieves”

old woman, with couple kids, used up , washed up woman, etc… i guess, i should be grateful..

So, the lesson was: Dont ever make a life plan that goes vertical….its been up and down’s sideways, etc.

#2 save a little bit - dont wanna be a miser and miserable nor a splurge that suffers later

I started to help my parents out with bills and food… Not that am a “saint” or whatever, nor am i trying to shine a spot light on me. No. I just felt really sad when they didnt have money or had to make sacrifice or was stressed at work, etc… Since, I knew or watched them struggle. Plus, since i was a poor kid, i knew “EVERYTHING cost money” many times, I had to NOT-GET-WHAT-I- WANT.

who likes hearing that? I heard that so many times.

He would get mad that he didnt get PAID enough and also life sucked…

I rather tell you how most of the rich and wealthy people i know keep and make money.

#5 get a side hustle, study, read

(most people make more, start spending more, getting into more debt) but hey, i started to “SAVE MORE INVEST MORE” boring, i know.

And no body really likes hearing about the “REALITY CHECK” like the BILL that comes after a fancy restaurant.

I was the poor guy with 0$ in my pocket and 0$ in my bank account. I watched friends get hook up from other friends, free cars from family, the gravy train, etc… being spoiled by their parents…

#4 recycle, reuse, repurpose

The benefits of being low-class or low income is . Your job is pretty easy. Beside the labor.

And forbidden fruits laid before my feet by trappers…like trying to offer me illegal stuff, and trap me into situations…I cant get into that one too much…

But, as you see in my order, fun is the last thing i do…and trust me…when I am having fun. .I am wasting money at the bar, buying 7$ beer that i can get for 1$ at the store… you get the point.. FUN goes out first…

And, No I did not get to go to Movie theaters because it was too expensive. etc..

but , most people life is like “ good times, bad times, ugly times”

I mean, you can go look for another job, and walk away.

but, instead, you know, now am getting richer or whatever… but nothing will take away the pain, the missed opportunity, the lack of love, attention, romance, dating, happiness..

girls who like me, would be told by the group to dis-own me or Not like me….because i was broke. lol

hahahaha, i guess, those movies like clint eassstwood…had the “the good, the bad and the ugly”

Also, renting , as much as people hate that others have a “house” or own it…Owning a home is another level of responsibility, such as insurance, broken sink, water damage, property tax, etc…

Of course, they graduate some fancy schools and get a fancy job with big pay and big responsibility…

but anyway, peep who look at me now days…. all they say see is some short dude with some money…thats all on the surface….

and am like, fukk, man, god, can you give me a easy challenge?

So, I just kept trying, and life kept kicking me down…

I normally spend about 90% to 95% of my money but save a bit when i was low-income…for rainy days, unforeseen expenses, unexpected friends needing money, wanting to buy something i never seen, etc.

trying to climb or go up a “slippery slope” and, I failed college, and am about 40 ish year old now.

Then, I was mostly “A DAY LATE AND DOLLAR SHORT” for just about everything..

I was busting my life. My life sucked, but I knew, the only way out was to work-hard, earn money.

Not all homeless, but just look at the “PRIORITY” of most folks..

Bored in my room doing nothing VS. watching my alcohol fueled , drug frenzied friend, fighting his parents won. And sometimes, he would feed me food because i was too poor that the only thing to eat was white-rice or whatever. lol

but not me… I was inbetween the bridge… too poor to party with the rich… and barely had enough to stay afloat from being destitute or hopeless.

Am not sad nor is this a PITY party.

As you get a higher pay raise or side hustle or whatever.

But, you get the point.
