“If you can find an extra $50-100…a little less fun.” Are you being serious? We’ve already been doing that, and you’ve already been reporting on it. The only people allowed to have fun in this country are the billionaires.

yeah, stop using your $ for fun. you need to save that money for skyrocketing gas prices! Always keep the fun $ nonexistent/very minimal in order to use that $ to drive back to work. Boo to enjoying life..Going forward, I'll be sure to live only to go to work 🫡

I need to watch my spending? Wow… didn’t think of that before. I guess I’ll just take public transportation that doesn’t exist where I am to go places it doesn’t run and then stop wasting money on all these “necessities”
