I’m a week late on rent due, I only paid half, I had to call all my credit card companies and utilities to tell them what’s going on. And now my check engine light turned on because the bastard is misfiring. My wife lost her dad which fucked us both up due to missing a ton of work, and I don’t know what to do. I’m tired of asking my family for help, the for bank is only available while I’m working, I work 2 jobs. My wife is working too and we’re even took in a person to live in our spare room.

How in the world do people survive in this world when they don’t even have time to be happy? I use upside for gas and shopping I’m enrolled in every stores rewards program, I make my own cleaning supplies to save money and cook from scratch. What else could I do to save money? Also with the looming government shutdown I’m going to be furloughed for however long that is. Also what are some apps you guys use to help save money? I guess this is a lot of questions.

    I was lucky to be born in relatively fortunate circumstances and it infuriates me whenever I hear about the failures of our society.

    And it doesn’t even have to be like this, there are rich people hoarding money, resources and power, and fucking up the environment and the peoples’ lives in the process.

    I don’t know how to fix this, but the first step is recognising the problem at least.

      It should infuriate us all. Some of the most intelligent people on the planet are cleaning toilets, while complete dipshits run entire countries or huge corporations.

      Imagine how far we would have come, if it wasn’t for the fact that cunts are still running the world. We’d likely have colonized the solar system by now.
