It can be done, you just can't afford to buy a new TV, new car, game systems, new furniture, all the music you want, etc, and you have to do shit like live in crappy places for a while and eat a hell of a lot of chicken and spaghetti because they're cheap.

And before anyone accuses me of making it sound simple, I've done it and my friends have done it. There is no excuse that flies with me for not being able to work your way out of a situation if you really want to.
So you think the people that are working full time but are still living in poverty are lazy? Or that they don't want to work their way out of the situation?
