my mother bought her car for 1,800 i believe

and i end up paying more for maintence

Will still last for years

while maintaining it

for 100 dollars each trip to the auto shop

Yes

all these numbers you guys are throwing out

Listen it’s not going to be easy peasy but it’s highly possible

dont make any fucking sense to a poor person

yeah

0.0

its ideal

not realistic

It is realistic

give me a rundown how its realistic

There are homeless people that get on their ass and eventually reach middle class

There are first gen immigrants who work hard and reach middle class

most homelss people have some type of mental illness

Above the poverty line

yeah give me the numbers

for that

im not denying that can happen

people who are poor

often stay poor

OFTEN

They often sustain their income

And their family moves up in the economy generally with each generation

That is the trend currently

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socioeconomic_mobility_in_the_United_States#Gender_and_race

people with lower income

are more likely to stay lower income

Any recent statistics to show? This generation is generally more successful

these number show from 2014

but ill find something
