'Poverty is a scary thing, and it's really hard to get out of it without friends and family. There's no easy way out, and the longer you're there, the deeper the holes get, especially if you start borrowing money.'
,"How did you come out of poverty/being broke?" And there were so many thought-provoking responses. Here are some of the top-voted answers:"Sacrificed comfort and focused on getting the bare minimum of what I need and how to get more money. I ate ramen and bread, slept outside, and took a shower when I could. I got a job at Walmart, then Ross. Found a cheap motel to stay at with the girlfriend, and we scrimped and saved.
The moral of this story is that poverty is a scary fucking thing, and it's really hard to get out of it without friends and family. There's no easy way out, and the longer you're there, the deeper the holes get, especially if you start borrowing money.""I grew up with drug addicted/alcoholic parents. I've worked every day since I was 16 and stay far away from my family. My wife and kids are my rock and keep me working hard and pushing to be better.
From there, I just kept climbing and staying hungry. I have never had a safety net, and I think that helps a lot. I'm by no means rich or outlandishly successful, but I can do what I want, when I want, and not stress out. More than I can say for all the people I grew up around.""I only managed it because I had help from what little family I have. We have always lived frugally, and when my grandparents died, I inherited the house . That meant no more rent.
"If not, then look for ways to use your new skills to take a step in a different direction. Working hard and having a growth mindset is huge. But I have to acknowledge that I was super lucky that I just happen to love mathematics. Mathematics is one of those things that everyone needs, yet everyone refuses to learn, so I have a lot of opportunities.
