what is it like being poor?
Meh.
I have a lappytoppy and thats all i need.
It's pretty pathetic to waste that much money on children's entertainment products when you're a working adult
>>39314330
All those handhelds, probably never held hands
>>39314330
Dinner is often rice, butter, and some salt. Sometimes I make toast, but since I have no cinnamon or sugar, it's just a bunch of butter. I've thought about setting up traps to catch rabbits, but after seeing rabbits out of season being full of parasitic worms, I never did it.
>>39314352
But what you are wearing red and want to off set it with your blue psp that day ? Gotta suck if you only have a black psp
>>39314330
>someone takes pride in this
>>39314380
please tell me you don't live in the united states
>>39314415
Shhhhhhh.
Dont upset the autistic child.ren
>>39314380
Are you a real neet?

>he can afford luxury foods
>identifies as a robot
Get the fuck out, normalshit.
>>39314330
>dat limited edition gameboy light
muh
>>39314415
They've worked hard and can afford a sizeable collection worth several thousand dollars. That's something to be proud of. Why don't YOU have money to spend on what you like?
>>39314463
"robots" >>>/out/ , we're taking back the board.
>>39314384
Its really okay dude.
>>39314330
>don't get to hangout at clubs or diners
>tv and other gadgets are a luxury
>>39314368
The thing is some people are so rich that the waste is insignificant to them
>>39314330
I love the gameboy micro
>>39314330
I rent a tiny 1 bedroom apartment, have a constantly empty fridge, no furniture, a cheap desktop, broken laptop, walk everywhere, can only afford to do my laundry once every 2 months and almost everything I own is broken. That's kind of what it's like to be poor.
>>39314626
>I can't eat take away food all the time or buy entertainment products
How terrible
>>39314678
>almost everything I own is broken
this made me laugh so hard
not at you
just at the idea of a broken toothbrush
like wtf would that even entail
>While he was buying Game boy advances I was investing in Apple stock
>Mfw I am now a millionaire
>>39314330
what is Keanu Reeves like in real life?
>>39314330
That display case is full of dumb shit. What's the point of owning 20 of one handheld console? It's not even stimulating to look at, it's just a waste of money. And those hideous fallout figurines. Jesus. Unbelievable shit taste.
>>39314815
Most of it is ok if you're into that but the fallout shit is absolutely awful. Especially the pop figures.
>>39314330
>No T.V
>No laptop, only a ten year old tower desktop without speakers
>Never owned any vidya system unless you count Nintendo DS when I was twelve
On the bright side this means the chan is my only real distraction and I can focus on my studies.But I'm poor and they're putting me in debt
>>39314815
>what's the point of 20 different NDSs
Most collecters never use the stuff they buy
>>39314904
How do you not own a tv? They're under 100$. Also FAFSA and your state will probably cover your college if your that poor. And work part time too.
>>39314796
His had a pretty tough life
>>39315045
Had one a long time ago, my autistic (actual, no memes nonverbal severe autism) sibling smashed it in a rage. Realized I didn't really miss it so I haven't bothered getting one.
FAFSA and work study has been pretty helpful, I'll still have to borrow a few thousand from the gubmint.

>le middleschool collection with event-only items
>>39314330
>remember that kingdom hearts psp
>wanted it so bad
>didn't pre-order
>had no money until two weeks after release anyways
>asked gamestop if they had any left
>they chuckled at me and my question
>years later, I bought a psp and birth by sleep for cheap
>beat it
>let my older brother borrow it to play
>he sold it for drug money
I'm not poor but I'm not well off either
>>39314330
pop! figures
>>39314330
>you break the law ever single day
>never bought even one percent of the software I've experienced of any kind, music, video games, etc
>don't even have the money to save software so it's fleeting
>still have windows xp laptop that I'm afraid to break by putting linux on, plus it'll likely work less well
>typically only device used during the day is 50 dollar tablet, play video games, shitpost, watch tv shows on it, seven inches
>live paycheck to paycheck and feel like you're rich because most of your life because the most allowance you've had was five dollars every week or so (not evey week because room not clean, grades not high enough)
>get put into foster care because parents poor and don't work
>walk everywhere, have scars from the chaffing all under legs
>hate popos and niggers alike because not selling the dude weed as a non autist nigger would but aint on the others side no way no how
>whole worlds against you
>neither parents own car to this day
>parent has no teeth nor dentures
>fat because food is the only thing you'll have when poor in USA
>become robot from lack of INternet access growing up
>never own car, contributes to failure at life
>never even consider getting a job because after being so defeated by life, doinig anything more than part time sounds too painful, and rent is too expensive if you don't get full time, and with your shit life they'd not give you that many hours anyway so you'd need to get two jobs but at the end of that hopeless scenario not even your parents own a car between them nor a house
>get bothered by landlord that you rent from whole life, less privacy living in an apartment
>can't play loud music, wear headphones all of the time and get told to be quiet at night because of the walls having strangers at night behind them just feet away
>stupid because poor all things considered
>feel awful about having nice expensive things because you might hurt it and it's not replaceable so you hate nice things, only cheap

how does it feel being a plebeian normalfaggot
>>39314330
In my country, a computer to run vmware virtual machines for network and systems is a minumum of $1100.00 for a meh one.
>TFW you are barely able to afford it. after you hock a few things :/.
>>39314330
>be me
>collecting handheldNintendoconsoles
>one console per generation, excluding the newest one
This image makes me sad. What is the point of collecting if you can't have the biggest collection?
>>39314330
thats a very nice collection anon, do you ever play them?
>>39314330
I dont even see a problem in spending that much money on friviolous toys, but jesus christ at least get something more interesting like a Neo Geo Pocket or Nomad or something
>>39314368

i knew an engineering student who used to jackoff in class (grade 8) and got caught repeatedly
>>39314330
You have to budget all your money carefully so that you don't go over, and look embarrassed at the store when you are taking off essential items , you get a full tax refund , you work low skilled jobs that have a high turnover because anybody with any smarts leAves these jobs, and that's left are potheads , mean spirited people who hate themselves , and fresh of the boat immigrants . You see people who don't have much money but are happy because they are with loved ones , you see neets bragging about neetbux and want to lose it.
>>39314330
>you will never own a GBA micro
>you will never own a Metal Slime 3DS or PS Vita
>you will never own an AGS-101 Famicom or NES GBA SP
>YOU WILL NEVER OWN EVERY ATLUS GAME FOR THE DS
I used to love throwing all my money at video game shit but now I can't do it.
It's just too much.
>>39314330
I've never had any money but my parents have always made sure I've never lacked anything, does that make me rich or poor?
