It actually makes me angry. I skimp big time on anything I don't absolutely need because my (and any fucking rational person's) priorities are: roof over head, food on table, lights on. Once those things are covered, then we start moving down the list to internet, phone bill, car insurance, stuff that's still "necessary" but I could technically live without. Magical fairy unicorn explosion shit is so far down the list that it's not even factored into my thought process.

I would love to spruce my place up. I would love to surround myself in things that make me happy and make my living space charming. I can't afford to do that. So I don't. And someone splurging on all this unnecessary garbage and then turning around and crying at people that they can't afford their necessities just pisses me off, because what makes them so much more special that they "deserve" to have every sweet little thing that their hearts desire while the rest of us just have to get by?

Like, get fucked. For real. Sell off all your ponies and cute shit and pay your fucking rent next time.

I live in a house (in CA) and I can't afford to make it look nice. Due to a pay raise I can just barely afford to decorate my 5 month old's nursery. We only live in a house and pay that kind of rent for the 3 year old to have space to play. Eat cheap, with the occasional (BUDGETED) treat. Stay at home or go the park for activities - or, if your city or county has it, publicly funded activities. Buy second-hand clothes or go straight to the clearance rack (I do this all the time) IF you need clothes.

I honestly think people who say this is impossible have never had to live on a budget. Hubby and I ate gluten free for 200 a month at our poorest. It was not tasty. We were budgeting how much cheese our salads could have. It was somewhat healthy. But it was POSSIBLE.

And we were, and are, quite happy with our lives, to boot.

*sigh*
