[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many of the posts on this board are of people observing how poor people live.  What I want rich people to know is that you still don't KNOW what it's like to be poor.
Do you keep the house warm sometimes by opening the oven?
Do you open the refrigerator to make lunch for school and see a jar of jelly and ketchup and that's it?
Do you count out you quarters at the laundry mat and try to arrange the loads so you have enough left for a soda?
Did your mother send you to the local store to cash a check, not going herself because she knew it would bounce?
If you look at me now you'd see a blonde woman who speaks perfectly and dresses well.  You may think that I grew up "rich",  because I look and act the part.
I want you to know I walk the line between wealthy and poor-  I don't fit in either category but I can relate to both.[/quote]

Tons of people are like this. Including me. I didn't grow up rich. Big deal. [/quote]

Plus 1.  I don't get this thread. I was from a poor dysfunctional family. Now I am successful and have a good life because I worked hard to get it. Stop with the white privilege crap. I am black and had to work harder. [/quote]
