The First Level: Acceptance

So you are broke as fuck, time to accept it.

The first big step for the acknowledgement of poverty is taking the time to realize where you actually stand in the shit-hole that is your finances. Now in this blog, THE POOR MAN, is defined by a simple set of rules:

1) Do you only make enough money for your necessities.

2) Do you work everyday and still keep your savings at a reasonable borderline of zero.

3) Do trips to the ATM instill a feeling a dread followed by a deep resigning sigh of hopelessness.

4) Does your wallet contain less than $5 at any time of the week and thus dread ever opening it, in that you would have to dig past some 12 weeks of receipts to claim said $5 (or less).

5) You fucking hate everyone.

If you match any or all of these rules with a resounding YES, then welcome aboard asshole, and get ready for the ride of a small and meaningless lifetime.

This Blog is dedicated to the acknowledgement of your poverty stricken fate and the reality that the american dream is fiercely subdivided between the hopeful (aka stupid), the lucky (aka rich) and the dead (aka you).

But all hope is not entirely lost. In the following entries I will enlighten you in the "ways of the poor" and offer many helpful tips and strategy's for not only surviving this state, but also utilizing it to your personal advantage in a world that considers you a necessary, yet highly expendable tool in it's box!

Read on you sad, angry, frustrated masses. The worst is yet to come... might as well be prepared for it!
