For those of yall that act like break ing out of poverty is as simple as "work hard".
To put this in perspective. I shared this like 3 ish years ago when I was working at 3 restaurants, cleaning houses, and barely making rent. I couldn't afford groceries so one of the restaurants let me take home leftover rice now and then.
I would comb parking lots looking for change to pay for the bus home after shift and for some food at the dollar store by my apartment. I didnt go to any doctors for about 2 years because I couldn't afford to.
