      Well, I’m 32 and my birthday a couple weeks ago went by with absolutely nothing happening because I couldn’t afford to buy myself a gift or even go out for a movie or something.

        Well even if it wasn’t happy :( I am glad you were born and I doubt I am alone! Your posts brighten my day and I really, really appreciate it.

          It’s one big reason why I post. If I can make anyone elses day just a lil better then it’s worth it. Granted I didn’t make any of this shit but still.

        So poverty isn’t a generational issue, but a universal one.
