Feels pretty bad, brother.

Imagine this way, you try your best but it's never enough to do the shit you want because not only things are somewhat expensive, the pay also sucks.

Ex. you could have an engineering degree and you have a similar buying power of a teenager working in wallmart.

Also a bit unrelated to my current situation but since I grew up as a poorfag, one of the funniest things if having to choose between paying either the energy or water bill for that month.

my family were pretty poor when i was a kid. i didn't realise it when i was very small because my parents worked hard to keep food on the table but of course i noticed it more as i got older.

it becomes all-consuming. lack of money becomes the only thing you think about. you are always making choices and compromises based on your financial situation and it excludes everything else. it's how i know that practically everyone that talks about "privilege" is pretty middle class. really unprivileged people don't have time for that shit.

so if you're doing an online survey called "how privileged are you" it means you can read, you have an internet connection and you have time to spare to do stupid surveys, which means you are automatically more privileged than most people that have ever lived.

on the other hand it meant i spent all my spare time in the library reading when i was a kid and now i am better off than most of the people i know so fuck them

OP is upper-middle / servant class, tops, not an owner.

It sucks being only upper-middle class in USA. Where I live $100k/year is literally poorfag tier. Even the fat women only date $200k/year business chads and think they deserve to get a $500k/year elite owner man, even though they're used-up annoying roasties. So, they get pumped and dumped and then wonder why engineers would rather be single than date them.

rolex is a salarman's watch. I wear a VC overseas with in-house movement which is one big tier up from a roli. And what's nice about it is that nobody notices it or knows too easily, unless they are a watch affectionado, that it cost more than your car in many cases, and about half again more than that roli which to me looks fake anyway. discretion and taste is an important virtue missing from the people trying to make a display of it.

Medicine and healthcare is super expensive in Europe too. They just pay for it in taxes up front.

Terrible, but it's a great motivator.

I lived with my single mother and two half-siblings in a series of shitty apartments for most of my adolescence, and AFDC was the bulk of our income. A lot of the food we ate came in plain white packages with black block-letter labeling that said things like "POWDERED MILK" or "DEHYDRATED POTATOES".

Though this kind of poverty was not exactly uncommon where I grew up, most of my peers were in the middle class, and I became very class-conscious very early in life, mostly in response to the taunts of my better-off peers. By middle school it was almost unbearable, but punk rock and skateboarding became very chic, and was a good subterfuge to mask poverty with (ripped jeans, army jackets, and so on).

After childhood, I went on to eventually complete a doctorate, and I'm now among the top 15% of income-earners in this country, better off than anyone I went to high school with, a fact I like to rub in their fat, divorced faces at reunions.

I'd never buy a Rolex or any other nigger-tier bauble, though. Gucci, Coach, all of that shit is for ghetto niggers.

This is odd for someone who grew up poor, but I have a real propensity to save, hoard even. I plan on retiring at 55, so I'm a little less-inclined to throw money away on nigger toys. I do vacation twice a year: once in Vale and once in the Keys.

I don't even understand how poverty is possible in modern America without complete refusal to do anything about your situation, if you are so fucking poor, go sit at a busy intersection in a city and beg, if 1 out of 100 cars gives you a single dollar you still make like $20 an hour, and a lot of cars will give you more than 1 dollar too, just write some sob story on a damp piece of cardboard and you are all set. literally the only reason there are poor people here is because they are lazy or drug addicts, i got myself off the street in less than a year and started driving for uber since then, and I had literally no skill needed besides getting a license and being fucking persistent

It's not all that bad.

There comes a point where you have to balance work and money. The difference between making 200 to 500k a year but coming home everyday at five or six outweighs making a million and up a year and coming home every night at ten or eleven.

I grew up really poor, but now I'm in a interventional radiology fellowship. I'm not very materialistic, I think my stipend / salary of 58,000 right now is a lot of money. I don't even know what I would I would do with all that money that some surgeons bring in. I don't like showing off, I do like to have a couple nice things, nice laptop and computer, phone, and good quality food.


For watches, I wear a 15 dollar Casio, thinking of getting an apple watch 2, but we'll see. For shoes, Dansko are a way of life if you work in healthcare, 60 dollar nikes work for days off. I like my knock off ray bans from that cost 15 dollars. That's just the way I like to live.

>>79783819

it's not so bad, actually. It makes you grateful for things other people take for granted, like this computer and internet access I have. I only take cold showers, the toilets don't flush so you have to throw tons of water in the bowl manually so I have a large water tank next to the toilet filled with mosquito infested water. Sometimes the shower doesn't work so I have to wash with the water in that water tank lol eating is not a problem because food here is cheap, maybe not at a restaurant but street food is very cheap, so most people just eat there whether they are rich or poor. I'm honestly very comfortable with my situation, but I would never have a wife or family while being poor. I think that would be miserable.

Is this what it feels like to be rich?

1) Having nothing in common with normal people.

2) Others feigning interest in you, being nice to you, simply because you are wealthy.

3) Will never have a real marriage. Women solely interested in your money.

Actual rich people don't wear Rolex. Rolex is for the noveau riche. It's what the poor think the rich wear. Which is precisely why the rich people haven't worn them in decades. . Rolexes aren't even expensive. Get a GMT or a submariner for 6k. So OP is neither rich nor a man of taste. He's just middle class as fuck.

Gotta say that Rolex is hella fruity. And the shades have zero style points. Ray ban shades are made is same factory as all other sun shades. Read about it. Also, shit taste in food. Whoever bought that was convinced they're buying gourmet pizza. That pizza would make an Italian chef vommit and then throw that Swiss watch over the Vatican wall.

The price to eat street food compared to cooking at home is almost no difference. In fact in some cases it's cheaper to eat street food. I know one vendor who sells entire bag full of grilled shells for less than one u.s. dollar but the vendor is not always in the same spot so I can't get it everyday lol.

I knew a mexican guy that would sell crates of oranges with his son

My local food market sells 3 oranges for 1 dollar , small typical oranges whereas this mexican guy had nice fat juicy oranges
