If you're tight on cash and getting fast food, I have doubts about how tight on cash you actually are

Cooking unfortunately isn't really taught anymore. As someone who graduated and knew nothing about how to even do basic cooking, like didn't know how to make pasta basic, I was basically in that spot. Luckily I found cooking videos and learned, but right after school it was a hard few years. If it wasn't peanut butter, top ramen, or Mac and cheese I didn't know how to make it - and it was incredibly intimidating

I know how to cook, but it's hard with 2 kids, and we both work A LOT all week. Weekends we are almost always busy as well, so meal prep and cooking most days is hard. I try to do simple stuff, but it's hard, and I know I can't be the only one. Plus, I consider this guy lucky since let me check my bank account right now, and oh, it's currently negative $300 until next friday... life is super hard these days, do what you can...
