Hey now, that's just not true (!)

If you pull yourself up by your bootstraps, work an extra shift, maybe sell some things you don't need, you can afford a McChicken Sandwich (!)

Honestly anyone who isn't willing to work an extra 5 or 6 jobs has no right to complain.

Even then, you could be making passive income.

Yeah, just buy a house and rent it, demand for housing is super high so you can charge as much as you want!

Have you seen the price of boots these days? More like pull yourself up by your dirty socks (cost probably $15 to wash) and then get kicked out of any building you walk into for being in your socks then go find a hole somewhere without anti-homeless spikes to crawl into and die then your next of kin get the outrageous bill for the ambulance that was called, the cycle repeats and basically everything will be fine haha!

If I can pull myself up, I'll just have the pie in the sky.
