Aspie women why do you defend all women?
For example, a new job? A new job that pays well takes a crap ton of time to find and to actually get selected. At one interview for a job I saw the employer carry a stack, literally a stack, of papers that were resumes for the same position I was wanting.
They get thousands of applicants for retail positions at my work. There’s no shortage of people looking for work there is a shortage of jobs.
I can only work part time. There’s no good paying job for me. Good paying jobs require one work 40-80 hours a week. Like the lumber mill job they tried to set me up with. It requireed back to back 12 hour shifts and regularly 10-12 hour shifts paid 13 dollars and hour with high chance of you dying or losing a limb.
I’d have to make 40 an hour to make the same as someone making 20 an hour full time. No such job exists for people like me. There’s not even many $20+ jobs
Most are min wage up to 17 for jobs like construction, mechanics, security , law enforcement gets like 18 but need a degree and experience.
I make $11 an hour now at my job. Min wage is 10.25 for my area. It’ll go up to 10.75 next July.http://www.oregon.gov/boli/WHD/OMW/Page ... mmary.aspx
I had a car for 7 years and it didn’t help me with women. I lacked a good job. No I have neither

Then again, I may be the only woman on the planet who appreciate good sense and frugality. There are times in my life I could've bought a car, but it was an extra source of stress I didn't need.
The point was you can make what you have work for you, it’s not always a case of an instant “I can’t”.
Also, cars are a bit different to video games and iphones. They have a functionality in a lot of people’s lives. If anyone who bought an iphone claims to be poor, they’re a liar and an idiot.
Zach Goodwin, I’m not telling him to be a doctor and buy a car. I’m showing him that his way isn’t the only way. No one is going to fix your life for you. Make intelligent decisions and see what you can change, evaluate what’s important.
If he’s going to the gym he may very well get the same benefit if he went walking for example.
It seems he’s trying to tailor his life around getting a woman instead of sorting himself out, money wise, health wise and ease of access wise.
The fact someone who can barely afford to eat is considering a paid dating site membership is pretty screwed up. Sort out your priorities.
Budgeting is very personal.
I'd rather save money to travel, than for electronics, I have a second hand laptop and no tv. I dont buy alcohol because its extortionate and i cant justify the cost. I travel because I like visiting new places, not to show off. I also enjoy photography so hell yeah I'm sharing my photos on Instagram.
But again that's just me. A non-traveller would be incompatible with me because I need a travel buddy, but i don't need a guy who can drive or who owns a car because I'm sorted in that department.
No one is wrong, we just make different choices.

The doctor thing was figurtive not literal.

There’s something wrong if you need to complain about your situation.

You’re a conservative lol

I have no political leaning. I’m simply sensible.

In that case you're left of the right and right of the left. Apolitical people act as a mirror. Liberals and conservatives see their own mirror image reflected back at them. Conservatives see normal folks as liberals and liberals see normal folks as conservatives.

The days are long, but the years are short
I see idiots for what they are. I read all policies for parties, and choose the one with the least I disagree with or the most I agree with.
It's not easy, I really didn't want to vote for anyone this year as they were all so awful, but in the end I went for the party who proposed affordable housing for New Zealanders.
I've voted for all ends of the political spectrum based on policy. I'm a free thinker, I'm not governed by one side or the other, those people are stupid and blind.
All parties have their faults and good points. Hardcore Trump and Hillary supporters are stupid. They don't have the ability to step away and look at people for what they are: A bunch of fools and sheep.
I personally never buy any food or drink when I go out and always take.something with me, don't eat fast food, don't drink alcohol, don't drink coffee,.smoke, etc.
The savings do wonders!
I do occasionally buy chocolate milk. Which really doesn’t fit my expensive.
I buy protein bar and shakes for one meal, for breakfast I have cereal and almond milk, dinner is chicken and rice or instant mash potatoes. Rice is $3 and last s month or so, and I buy some more expensive rice that microwaves for days I don’t have 30 mins to cook the cheap rice. I don’t have any habits anymore. No coffee or energy drinks, I don’t drink alcohol, and I don’t smoke.
As for middle class most I’ve known are one pay check away from losing everything. As in if they lost their job next month they’d lose their house, cars, expensive electronics etc. I’ve seen ones who do desperately trying to sell guns, phones, etc so they can pay their mortgage that month. They take a 3000 dollar gun and try to sell it for 1,000.
My friends parents lost their cars multiple times.
Same here brah I eat about $120-160 a month and that's when I DONT budget/buy whatever I want.
Two shopping sessions a month 50-90 dollars but that includes deodrant, toothpaste mouthwash multivitamins.it
Protein shakes, protein bars, cereal, almonds, walnuts, peanut butter, chicken, veggies, bee, bread, Rice, milk, fruits etc.
I drink energy drinks once or twice a week and iced tea same.
I agree with the middle class being a paycheckck away from being broke thing.

Before I worked I got $120 in food stamps I could get $15 but the constant reviews and such made it not worth it.
I only eat 1600 calories a day. So it’s not hard to stretch food. The protein shake and bar are like 400 the breakfast is 500 so leaves 700 for dinner=6 chicken nuggets, rice and a slice of garlic bread.
I eat the same thing every day unless family does group dinner they want me to eat.
Like last night they made bbq mini sausages and Mac and cheese.
On gym days I either eat a $1 pizza or sandwich and chips after.
Don’t drink too many of them. They messed up my stomach. I burp a lot now and I would get sick and vomitt. The sick is gone but I still burp a lot so I’m trying another two weeks of the meds before I go to doctor again. I never use to burp except after drinking soda too fast
It’s what happens when they have 2-3 car payments at $500+ each and then have payments on their TVs, furniture and electronics. Then they take expensive vacations they can’t afford buy atvs and boats etc. so they may make 3,000 a month but their bills are pretty much that much each month. Lots of people spend more then they make and shift it over credit cards so they use one to pay another and another to pay that one. Just shuffling the debt around.
A lot of middle class is a house of cards. It’s all show and could collapse at any moment. It must be super stressful.
You could get an electric bicycle. It’s a lot cheaper than a car, and then you don’t have to take stupid routes and stops.
If you like the bus it’s fine, but 4 hours a day is a lot of time to waste sitting on one.
I might get an electric scooter And ride it to work along the foot path. Cheaper than a car and fun.
I don’t get people who get loans for TVs. Seems stupid. Just go without one until you can buy it. Not the smartest decision. Choosing to be in debt for anything except education or a house is a concept I stuggle with.
I personally have no sympathy for people bad with.money. (Not talking about you)
There's not having much money because you need to support ypur family and kids and then theres people like my uncle, single male who bums off others for a place to stay not doing housework and delaying on rent, even eating their food, blows his pay in a day on alcohol and cigarettes then wonders "Where did it all go?" And bugs people for loans.
Same with my dad, and practically everyone else in this family.
Don't care if they're rich poor middle class they brought it on themselves.
Like actor Johnny Depp declaring bankruptcy after spending $100,000 every month for a long time.p
