MB2012 10/08/17 2:37:02 PM #12:	Most of the poorer schools are designed to have students pass standardized tests and meet graduation requirements. I went to five different high schools, all in rather poor area, and only one of them had any sort of personal finance classes, and it was a one term long class that only taught you how to open a bank account and balance a check book. No talk of credit scores, no talk of savings, they didn't even mention explain what interest is. --- Yeet <cite>MB2012 posted [p:888043891] in most poor ...

It's also something to do with being able to get a degree in gender studies or communications or something else not remotely marketable these days. That's actually BS because any college degree would have landed you a good job a few decades ago. But the job market is completely different now, i.e. much worse and more competitive for workers. Lol this. I have engineering friends who are underpaid or went back to school to get the next degree up because they couldn't get a job with their bachelor's/master's. But assuming poor people got to college anyway... not that hard to afford if you were actually in poverty or if you're an illegal alien in my state (yes that's correct). People start poor for a variety of reasons. What keeps them poor is usually stupid as fuck decisions like a $6 a day habit on cigarettes when they make minimum wage and having kids too early when they can't afford them. --- If you don't have anything nice to say, say it on the internet. ****poster Extraordinaire <cite>EdgeMaster posted [p:888048158] in most poor ...

FFVII_REMAKE 10/08/17 3:50:59 PM #21:	From what I've heard, most poor people were actually middle class making close to 6 figures, bought up a bunch of expensive shit they could probably afford and didn't need but couldn't keep up with the expenses, IRS and other debt caught up to them and they lost everything. So its people just being dumb with their money. Just look at how much the average American in their 30s have in their bank account.... literally less than $5K in savings while working a $70K job. People are just dumb as shit with their money. <cite>FFVII_REMAKE posted [p:888048547] in most poor ...

In fairness, some people never have a chance to save emergency funds in the first place, or just get hit by something ridiculous and that sucks really badly but ime most people (not just poor ones) just can't be bothered to save emergency because zomg da new Giga HD TV luks so pertty.
