1. Have you ever been too poor to afford smokes/drinks/food? Which was the first one to get cut?
Well, I don't smoke... drinks would get cut... but I don't really drink either.
I have kids. It's a bit selfish to cut food, don't you think? Yeah me too. Sooooo I'd cut what had to be cut that still kept my boys happy. *nods*
2. What is the most pathetic situation you have been in due to lack of money?
I had to ask my Aunt and Uncle to buy me school clothes. It was my Sophomore year in high school and my parents wouldn't cut out their smoke, drink or drugs for such things. It was SO embarrassing but I did get school clothes... and it was far better than going to the richy school with shite.
3. What is the most creative thing you have done to get some extra cash?
I've haven't had to get creative... not yet.
4. Have you ever been jealous of your pet for leading a better life than you?
Not really *my* pet. However, there was a time that my mom was treating her dog better than me or my father.
Every night she came home and cooked chicken and rice for the dog... my dad and I were made to 'fend for ourselves'. Damn dog was eating better than us.
5. You find $100 on the street, what do you do with it?
I'd keep that bitch! Are there people who would do something different?
6. If you could pass on one piece of advice about living life in poverty, what would it be?
Learn to enjoy the simple things. In the end, money is not what makes you happy... but don't con yourself into believing that life wouldn't be better if you had a little more.
7. Who is your favorite mod?
Sorry guys, but that would be Destiny. *GOFFs Des*
8. Why are you elite?
Because I live in South GA and sit on my porch drinking iced tea? Or how about Des and the Ling-thing are going to join me?
I was told to pawn all of my virtual bling... and I did, just to join this community?
Those good enough?
9. What is your favorite cheap and tasty recipe?
Hamburger Helper... without the hamburger meat.
Prepare according to the directions on the box... ignoring step 1. (Or, you know, whatever tells you to brown hamburger meat and such.)
Optional:
10. You're probably too poor to own a camera, but we still want to know what you look like! So, provide us with a representation of yourself in any medium.
NOSE CURL OF DOOM!!!
