I was so hurt in college when everyone would talk about being “poor” but their parents buying their books. I had 2 jobs and paid my moms rent 😭

Ppl don't realize how connected poverty & ignorance is. My parents only have elementary level ed. I was not taught to drink water, I only drank soda😳

And this doesn’t even touch on starting out not knowing about compound interest, how CC’s work, how CREDIT works, taxes, investing etc.

tik tok has helped me learn a lot of good hygiene practices because my mom and dad were too lazy to teach me
