[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many people on welfare and other public assistance programs live better than a young college graduate, working an entry-leve professional job. When I was in my 20s - before Internet and cell phones - I remember comparing phone plans carefully before deciding I would buy the LIMITED phone plan rather than unlimited, saving 30% off my bill. It was what I could afford at the time. In the meantime, I rented an apartment in a dumpy building where I was afraid to come home after 10 pm. At the same time, a 19-year-old with a baby was living in a government-subsidized 3-bedroom apartment for $87 a month, and renting out the other two bedrooms for cash, under the table. She had money to spare, and was always dressed in nice clothes and fancy hats. (Yes, I remember the hats in particular. People didn't even wear them and she had one for every day of the week!) In the meantime, I did all my shopping at JCPenney and Sears. Something is very wrong when a teenager living on government assistance programs has a higher lifestyle than a college graduate in her 20s. [/quote] I am not on public assistance and I shop at Sears and Penney's. no shame in that[/quote] Me too. Sears is the best. Many people don't buy those designer looking clothes/hats/purses...we make them.[/quote] No shame at all. I shop at WalMart and I live in McLean. I hate wasting money.[/quote]
