Maybe 2-3 more than it.


So anyone over 18 (legal adult age) making less than 30-45k a year is a failure at life?

I'm talking about grown arse adults working at McDonalds.



And if that man has the courage to help a person being mugged, would you still consider him a failure? If he limits his job prospects because he wants to take care of a disabled/elderly sibling/parent, is he still a failure? If he still manages to donate to charity even on his humble income, is he still a failure?

Local native culture (traditional) doesn't consider you to be an adult male until the mid 30s.

Maybe some like to enjoy life and have the discipline to live below their means. It can work if you want it to.

A failure at life would be the one who actually thinks about this question, then actually ask it.

Don't shite on others just to make yourself feel better. I'd much rather a humble person working their but off for just a little money than someone who is able bodied but lazy, so they sit at home and collect checks.

Wait, so you do manual labor in the sun all day for less than $50k and you have the audacity to question other people?

Hard to fault someone for actually working, regardless of wage. At least they have some pride and sense of worth instead of leeching off the government like a bum.
most welfare scum works a near min wage job

I'd probably settle for a few dollars over minimum wage right now. I've always considered myself a failure though.
