I don't at all. My friends are all over the place financially. My Ivy League classmate friends are all very well off. But a lot of my childhood friends have no money. I'm paying one friend's mortgage now so he doesn't lose his house, I bought another friend's kid birthday presents so he could say it was from him and I have another friend who lives downstairs in my house rent and food free. I even had to pay to put a full tank of gas in his car yesterday because he did not have the money to do so.
I realize I am fortunate financially so I am just paying it forward. I don't give a fuck about the money but that's easy for me to say when I am not struggling and not living paycheck to paycheck and not being furloughed or laid off like they have been. I'm happy to help them. Whether they pay me back or not is up to them. I don't need their money so I really don't care either way.

And queue the conspiracy theories. And pray tell what devious schemes are these? Where the CIA released AIDS to kill blacks? Or where the Jews are stealing your wealth? Please tell us about these secret algorithms, data, and secret squirrel decoder rings and how they are used to make black men have out of wedlock children, with multiple women. Explain the brown bag rule to us.

Nobody WANTS to be poor, genius. I'm sure most apartment dwellers want to get out. But it's difficult. Like I said, rent keeps going up (while salaries don't). Then they tack on all these bullshit fees associated with buying a house. Oh, btw, you have to qualify for VA loans and other so called assistance programs. Not everyone does.
I think many of you really underestimate how poor poor people are. I saw some stat about how a certain percentage of Americans can't even cover a $400 emergency.
People gotta pay their rent, first of all. For many, that completely obliterates their paycheck...meaning they're spending north of 50% in some cases. Then there's food, utilities, gotta have a phone, car, insurances, etc...other bills here or there. They've got kids, many of them. That means daycare, since both parents need to work (and skip any Covid comments, because it's only been going on a couple three months). I could go on and on about life expenses. I'm sure you get the point.
You may not be a racist (though it's debatable), but OTHERS ARE. Just like, ohhh, one guy may not be a rapist, but OTHERS ARE. The point being, they don't abide by any sense of morality or fairness. They do things by design, to disrupt the lives of others, And, they do it in a way that they can get away with it for as long as possible. No rapist OPENLY RAPES people. By that same token, no racist openly operates as a racist. They use laws, and data, and algorithms, and have similar minded people as a think tank to help them pull it off their devious schemes. They'll do it as long as they can get away with it. If no one ever stops them or holds them accountable, they'll just keep doing it.
Either you pretend to not know this stuff, or you're just not as smart as I want to give you credit for. You act like everything was instantly cool in 1865, and hand shake and no hard feelings. Hey, blacks...sorry about that. But it's all good. We'll get you set up and on your feet in a couple weeks. 40 acres, a mule. The whole nine.
For 160 years, there's just not been enough commitment to fixing things. Just keep kicking the can down the road.
But I'm done talking in circles. I've given this too much attention as it is.

It is difficult being poor. The Asians tended to live with many people in the same house pitching in to help pay all the bills and save money as well as take care of and educate the children.
Sure, that would suck. The closest thing to that I ever experienced was sleeping on government issue beds stacked three high with green sheets I had to make up perfectly every morning. How I slept through the other fuckers snoring is beyond me at this point.
Being poor sucks. That's the motivation to not be poor. I agree it isn't easy to get out of but maybe posting on a SHMB instead of earning money is a negative contributor to wealth.

it kind of sucks, yeah, and Asians would rather not have to do it.
but you know what? that is common in both Vietnam and the Philippines.. and you know what countries have the happiest people on earth?
Vietnam and the Philippines.
it's all in the mind, and appreciating what you have.. family over money. foreign concept here, but it's real over there.
which isn't to say Vietnamese would not love to have more money.. but really only to make life a little less hard.

The path to true happiness is 3 Ivy League Degrees and a collection of Henry rifles that you brag about on a SHMB read by about 20-30 people.

This. Being grateful is the difference between happiness and misery... no matter what the size of your paycheck.

I don't know what the SOY reference is, but you should hit him in the face with a bottle of fish sauce for saying he owned you.
God. I have been tickled reading this thread for the longest time. And I got to side with Aoi. He'd have my vote long ago if I could get the hookup with the lady in his avatar. Please tell me it is not a Lady Boi.

Yes, Creed, the free education you pontificate is what we already know. You are a racist.

How am I racist?
It's easy to make ridiculous assertions without proof. I can do it, too.
Coyote, you're racist.
There you go. See how easy that was.
Now enlighten me on how racist I am.

No matter what you bitch and whine about, everyone here has destroyed your talking points. So, go ahead. Focus on "liking" posts.

Dude, every post you've ever made has been completely void of not only intelligence, but any point in general.
It's like you're paid to just run interference.
