Lmao dude I was born to white trash drug addicts and never lived in one place for more than 9 months because they could never afford rent and kept getting kicked out. I have lived on my own since I was 15
Born on third base my ASS. I have worked my ass off since I was a teenager. I’ve lived in friends storm cellars, couches, and my truck at times to get where I’m at now.
I made saving a priority since my first job working at fuckin Burger King in high school.
So you had friends that helped you live at their place, do you think that maybe there people who don’t have that kind of support system? You did not pull yourself up by your bootstraps, you had a lot of help along the way.
Also, now go tell the you that was living in your truck to take from your savings and pay your bills.
Jesus dude yeah people have had it worse but it’s not a competition. You accused him of not earning his financial position and he explained how your attack on person is baseless. Having friends is a support system, it doesn’t mean you had it easy. If you were not raised by wolves, you’ve had people help you too.
Whatever you say dude. I know I had help. Virtually everyone has help along the way. If you have literally nobody that will let you crash on your couch, maybe you should look deep inside why nobody likes you.
Me living in my truck did take from my savings to pay bills. Half the reason I lived in my truck was not to be wasting money on renting some shitty apartment and draining my savings. I maintained a savings the whole time.
Keep complaining instead of doing something about it. It’ll guarantee you stay poor.
How about when you left the house to live on your friend’s couch? You had savings then? Did you pay your friends rent? LMAO, How much was your savings, $10? Did you have it in a bank account at 15? So many questions that I think you’re having battles with your inner self answering. I normally don’t like to see this kind of struggle, but this time I’m enjoying it.
When I left the house? You mean when my parents drug habits caught up with them and we ended up homeless.
I didn’t live on anyone’s couch. I spent a day or two at most at a friends house at a time.
I had a few thousand saved up. And yes had a bank account where my pay was direct deposited or my parents would steal it.
You can wallow in your self pity and tell yourself that everything is luck or some bullshit to get out of helping yourself. That’s fine. I’m doing more than well now lol.

Welcome to living on someone’s couch, lmao.
What’s super hilarious is that you think I’m poor. Just because I have compassion for people doesn’t mean I don’t have money. Your world view is fucked up if you think being shitty to people who are in a hard place, a place you’ve actually been, is a decent way to go.
Why do you think that was one friend or something? That’s not living on someone’s couch.
And I have plenty of compassion for people actually trying to make their lives better. I have zero compassion for people that sit there and just blame everyone else, thinking they should get everything handed to them.
Would you be this toxic if you had help when you were younger instead of left to fend for yourself? I honestly don’t get your world view, it’s honestly depressing. Lazy seeming to you may be someone in shock and not knowing what to do because they’re overwhelmed. Why would you not want help for others that you didn’t get? It didn’t make you stronger, it made you hard and judgemental for some reason. I’m glad you got out but damn if you’re not pulling up the ladder behind you.
I haven’t been toxic. Toxic is the prevailing attitude online, at least on Lemmy, that nobody should have to work for anything and everything should just be free, never mind that someone has to actually work to make that shit they want for free.
Toxic is the attitude that anyone who isn’t working at a minimum wage job subsisting on ramen just lucked into it without any work at all
I am all for helping people. I have personally helped a ton of people that have needed it. I’ve given my couch, my truck, money, food, stuck my neck out for people for jobs, clothes, you name it. I love lifting people I care about up. What I hate is trying to help someone that just leeches off of others and gets mad when you cut off the help. And I’ve been around enough to see that most people complaining online are that person.
