    Stop living outside your means, invest and you'll be fine.

    You literally can not do this when you're on such low income that you need food stamps and other assistance just to pay rent and the electricity bills

      I also love when people's solutions are to move to a different state. Yeah, let me simply leave behind all of my friends and family for slightly lower rent. Do these people have zero social connections?

        No, they don't, but even beyond that it ignores that moving is expensive, and that the person probably can't afford to just go to a different state on a whim. So using their monetary framework their argument is still dumb as hell.

      I never understood how true this was until I 1. started making decent money and 2. had to work 50 hours a week.

      The money helps so much to alleviate the issues caused by working yourself to death.
