    every situation. I wasn't aware we had someone as special as you in
    this echo.

    One of the problems with the Ignorant Elitists like our resident Swedish Meathead here, is that they think the being an "expert" in one area, immediately makes
    them an expert in another, completely unrelated, area.

    Look up Thomas Sowell and Noam Chomsky on YouTube for some fun videos.
    Quick overview: Noam is an expert in linguistics, but tries to pass himself off
    as an expert in politics.

    I used to be the sole provider of the family and back (around 2012) I
    was only making $1600 a month.

    This is getting better and better with each iteration. Did you
    perhaps flunk out on maths already in elementary school?
    Four people living on $1600 per month means $13 per capita and day.
    That doesn't even cover proper food, but even more importantly
    mortgage, taxes, transportation and utility services.
    $1600 per month means that you are a total social failure with no education. A perfect member of the MAGA Cult...

    Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is you're stupid
    and make bad decisions.

    Wow, you have an opinion! Good thing we all have opinions. Sometimes
    people who are stupid have stupid opinions and make bad assumptions. Of
    course this is only my opinion. Good thing we all have one.

    Have a great day!

    Thank you for your eloquent reply. Unfortunately, I don't see anything about the issue in question: How does a family of four survive on $13 per day?

    But then again, that was not your objective, was it? All you tried to do was help a fellow Cult Member out of the web of crazy statements that he is no longer able to untangle himself from. Right? Just shoot the messenger, and all is well.

    I don't have anything to untangle. That's how the money was for a while. There was this thing called the Roadrunner Food Bank and they gave me tons of free food. I made it work until my wife was done with college and then once she started working again we finally had money to buy better food.

    Why are you such a miserable old man? Have you ever tried being grateful for what you have? I thank God every week for all the blessings that I can count.

    You are apparently an expert on the subject. You must have lived in the
    same area as everyone in this echo and know exactly how to calculate
    expenses and know exactly what it takes to survive in every area and in
    every situation. I wasn't aware we had someone as special as you in this
    echo.

    But then again, that was not your objective, was it? All you tried
    to do was help a fellow Cult Member out of the web of crazy statements that he is no longer able to untangle himself from. Right? Just shoot

    You presume to know what my objectives are. The simple language you use
    gives you away. Par for the course, if someone doesn't agree with you
    and answer 150 badgering questions to your obsessive compulsive
    satisfaction you immediately assume they belong to the Hare Krishna and
    are spouting crazy talk.

    I really don't think you are making any crazy statements. I don't
    presume to know what your objectives are, I just wonder why you think
    you know the answers to all the questions before they are asked. I don't
    think you are part of a cult.

    Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is you're stupid
    and make bad decisions.

    I try to let people speak for themselves and it appears you have
    according to the sentence above. You can tell if someone is ugly inside
    by the words that come out when they 'try' to communicate.

    I would like to sit down with you sometime and discuss things over a
    cup of coffee or tea so I could determine if my first impressions are
    correct. Really.

    Have a great day BJ”RN!
