i grew up poor, and my dad left us when i was 10 (he wasn't around much anyways, and my mom later remarried though)
even when she did, my mom and stepdad worked 12-14 hour days, real hard work, not jerk-off lemme do some wheeling and dealing ari gold bullshit or sitting on your ass parking attendant shit. and they worked everyday, no weekenRAB, no vacations, nothing like that.
they aren't the only ones either. there are plenty of poor people that work their asses off to keep their kiRAB clothed, fed, and the lights on.
you say there's LOLyers out there working 80 hour weeks? boo-fucking-hoo, at least they have some nice things to show for it.
