    Whatever you say dude. I know I had help. Virtually everyone has help along the way. If you have literally nobody that will let you crash on your couch, maybe you should look deep inside why nobody likes you.

    Me living in my truck did take from my savings to pay bills. Half the reason I lived in my truck was not to be wasting money on renting some shitty apartment and draining my savings. I maintained a savings the whole time.

    Keep complaining instead of doing something about it. It’ll guarantee you stay poor.

        When I left the house? You mean when my parents drug habits caught up with them and we ended up homeless.

        I didn’t live on anyone’s couch. I spent a day or two at most at a friends house at a time.

        I had a few thousand saved up. And yes had a bank account where my pay was direct deposited or my parents would steal it.

        You can wallow in your self pity and tell yourself that everything is luck or some bullshit to get out of helping yourself. That’s fine. I’m doing more than well now lol.

            Why do you think that was one friend or something? That’s not living on someone’s couch.

            And I have plenty of compassion for people actually trying to make their lives better. I have zero compassion for people that sit there and just blame everyone else, thinking they should get everything handed to them.

                I haven’t been toxic. Toxic is the prevailing attitude online, at least on Lemmy, that nobody should have to work for anything and everything should just be free, never mind that someone has to actually work to make that shit they want for free.

                Toxic is the attitude that anyone who isn’t working at a minimum wage job subsisting on ramen just lucked into it without any work at all

                I am all for helping people. I have personally helped a ton of people that have needed it. I’ve given my couch, my truck, money, food, stuck my neck out for people for jobs, clothes, you name it. I love lifting people I care about up. What I hate is trying to help someone that just leeches off of others and gets mad when you cut off the help. And I’ve been around enough to see that most people complaining online are that person.
