When I was young, I was poor. But after decades of hard work, I'm not young anymore
I used to be poor. I'm still poor, but I used to be, too.
The absence of affordable housing is a failure of the state. working your whole life to pay for housing is the rigging of the system.
It's intentional. We are all just serfs
One day my boss rolled up in a fancy new car, I had grown up in a family that did better than middle class and still I had never seen such luxury. I was reminded of how I was promised the world, and given scraps, never to enjoy the same level of financial freedom as my grandparents.
But then my boss put his hand on my shoulder, he saw the pain in my eyes, and he reassured me
"Listen, if you work hard, apply yourself, put the company's needs before your own wants..."
My heart sang, could this be the secret to my salvation? "I'll finally get that raise"
My boss laughed. "No, I can get a nicer car by the next fiscal year."
More like "put the company's wants before your own needs".
And now anyone that has beef with him can make a copy of his keys and waltz in the front door.
I don't love that I saw this post and the very first thought I had was that I hope those aren't their actual front door keys.
The trick is finding his front door
Edit: and we all know from this post op has no assets
Wow, and that's a really tiny house too. Couldn't even get a whole hand through the front door.
Obviously wasted too much money renting that large hand.
