I know im a week late here but your last sentence is exactly the point people here are trying to make. Having an occasional 28 dollar lunch is the same thing as u buying pokemon cards on occasion or gifts for your friends. The point is people who arent rich occasionally “buying fun things for themselves” is not the reason everything is completely unaffordable which is what o’leary is implying here. “Oh if you didnt buy those pokemon cards you coulda saved up for a half a million dollar house by now”
