quote:A portrait of these hourly pay scales becomes even more pathetic when you consider that regional airline pilots, who are paid only from the time the airline leaves the gate to the time it arrives at the destination, only are on the clock on average about 21.5 hours per week. looooooool

FMguru posted:theres an entire subgenre of articles about how learning how to budget and save is the secret to becoming rich, which is of course nonsense. the target audience for them is never actual poor people, but rather rich people who want to be assured that poverty is a matter of individual choice and bad decisionmaking - that the working poor are poor because they spend all their money on spinning rims and $200 tennis shoes, the silly dillies. nothing systematic, generational, or racial about poverty - its all because Those People fritter away their money on avacado toast and coffee pour-overs. i'm almost certain all those articles are just ghost written bank PR firm pieces to convince people to put money in banks and talk to their shady as poo poo sales people
