50 years ago my parents couldn't afford a home, so they squatted on an abandoned family shack.

We didn't have running water until we ran a pipe from the neighbors house.

We barely had electricity, it was 2 fuses for the whole house.

I was shitting in an outhouse, the year that Star Wars was released.

We put 2 adults and 5 kids in 600 square feet. Heated with kerosene and coal.

Back then I didn't know we were poor. I thought we were middle class.

I will say it again. Suck it up buttercup.

Just because you are perfectly fine living like a 1100-era serf doesn't mean everyone else has to be and just "suck it up, buttercup."

I see your hard living did absolutely nothing for your common sense.

They still lived in a better economy than young people today

None of your drivel you posted matters to the fact above

Some people are very rich in horrible economic times

Some people are very poor in fantastic economic times
