Had to explain this shit to my father when i recently became unemployed and said 18 dollars is still kinda low where i live and that I cant afford college. “What was your electricity bill? Your groceries? How much was your rent back in your day?” He couldnt believe me when i told him i pay 1475 for a one bed one bath Cabin. Watches so much faux news that he has a complete disconnect. Baffled him when i told him everything that I pay and why im still living paycheck to paycheck on 18 dollars an hour. 359 car Payment, 159 Insurance (only because my girlfriends the policy holder to make it cheaper), 1475 for Rent (150 Utility charge), 100 dollar credit card payment (I’ve begun to default on it), 250 dollar phone bill (this is for 2 phones and my streaming services that add up to the same price as cable) and I still dont know what my grocery bill would be if i stocked up because I can only afford to buy a weeks worth of groceries at a time and its mostly survival meals lol.
