As you type this, people in poverty who had their state-sponsored cheap telephones so they could get callbacks for work and take care of their families, are getting notified that the program has been canceled and they have to now somehow pay for their own phones on top of every other fee and expense that increases when you're poor.
It's also kind of hard to not pay for your car when you live in it. Speaking from experience.
That's truly terrible but I don't know what that has to do with money management, which is the only point I'm trying to make. I agree on the rest of all of this.
That's because I don't think you actually understand the conversation. We're talking about the difficulty of poverty, you're thinking "money management" and that REEKS of someone who's never actually been poor. You do not get it. You should be ASKING QUESTIONS and not dispensing life-advice about money to people who have been through actual hardships you clown.
