“There’s never going to be a good time for it. We didn’t have a lot of money when I had mine. You just learn to sacrifice for them.”

I can barely afford rent at 40; how the fuck am I going to afford to raise a kid?

And the rich are even buying up trailer parks to squeeze money out of the people there, so even becoming trailer park trash with kids is unaffordable.

Who said anything about raising it? You just need to have the kid, and then the orphan crushing machine will take over from there

Instead of buying that latte, why don’t you instead buy some bootstraps and pull on them

It started as something literally impossible. Then people started using it to say they did it anyway. Expecting what is supposed to be impossible out of people is insane.

Then just walk in, demand to see the Big Boss, say Good Morning Sir, and ask for the job!

That phrase is just something the rich tell the poor to get them to bend over.

The media really gave me unrealistic expectations about how much money my dislike of avocado was going to save me.
