Falling out with the old man the summer of my junior year in college while an unpaid intern (over my spending on alcohol and going out, etc). He kept paying my expenses (rent, car insurance, etc) but took my Card and cut my spending allowance down to like $75 a week (for food, gas, and entertainment). That was a rough month full of Raman noodles and tap water.


Why the downvotes? $300 a month for food, gas and entertainment doesn't go far in the North East. That wasn't a subtle brag. Seriously, that's under $10 per day--again for food, gas, toiletries, batteries for the old Discman, booze, movie rentals (back then) and everything else.

Maybe because you still had your major expenses(rent, etc) paid for by your dad.

Because this thread isn't about hearing stories of people from different backgrounds, it's a pissing contest to see who went from poorest to richest or some shite. It's weird.

It's like when fan bases argue over whose team is worse and actually get into it. You don't wanna be poor but in this thread, you do.
