But it would be stupid to dent the threat they pose

Hence why I am going to school for computer science

@Jokerfaic
Why coax people into meaningful and inexpensive education that will likely land them a well paying job when you can have them get a degree in something useless, run up a shit ton of Student Debt, and Bleed them dry as they live in a shitty studio, work a minimum wage job, and spend what they don't use on Student Loans on Tattoos, Online Subscriptions, and Ben & Jerry's while spending their weekends getting drunk and having copious amounts of Unprotected Sex with Brent, Chaz, and TJ

People who are poor are usually terrible with money

No one who makes more than 40k that I know buys scratch cards

I get one drink a month

It is a glass of black heart on the rocks

<:thunk:462282216467333140>

the fuck is a scratch card? also I'm pretty sure that wasn't his point.

Scratch cards are lotto shite

Lotto-reeeee

lotto?

Lottery

You pay for tickets in the hopes you win lots of stuff

is THAT how that works?

You are more likely to be struck by lightning twice in most cases

Aka state-funded gambling

Buy cards worth 80 Bucks, Scratch with coin, win 7 Dollars and 30 Cents, take back to Gas Station, Repeat with next Paycheck

It goes more like this

wow... Oregon schools jusy said "its gambling and therefore illegal" and wouldn't tell us anything else

Buy 20 cards, scratch all of them, win $5, drink your losses away with it

or maybe that was just mine

Its a huge thing in the lower classes

Yeah I've seen what people do with lottery tickets

Gamble away all your money and thus stay under the states thumb

I've been homeless and didn't know any of this

Good

It's probably why you didn't stay Homeless

Everyone should read the richest man in babylon before they get a job

I wish I had years ago when I first started working

well didn't stay homeless because dad's a software engineer

My finances would be in a better place

Man, good thing schools teach us "Lottery Bad" Instead of "How to avoid becoming Homeless"

they could have just discouraged it instead of lying saying it was illegal

liked telling lies, my school

It doesn't matter anyway

like how they tried to say there will never be an emergency where you'll need your phone

People piss their money away one way or another, it's in their biological programming

Most people can't even plan a whole year ahead
