Today, I realized how poor I am when I had to use sharpies to color in the worn spots on my dress shoes before leaving for work. FML

OP here. Thanks lol. That's actually exactly what I was doing. I'm only 21, and I work in a very professional office, and I always need to look my best. I can't afford new shoes at the time, so that's why I sharpied them.

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

I'm so poor I sleep on a mattress I found with a collection of my clothing as the sheets.

No excuse they got cheap shoes at goodwill or salvation army. Sharpies expensive..

Don't be ridiculous. Even at Goodwill, dress shoes would be more expensive than a single black Sharpie.

that is so fake i saw this on tv the other day.. they were poor and had to color in spots where there were holes

At least you have sharpies..

It's called conserving I don't want to pay 60-100 for a new pair of dress shoes. If there a little used just color them in! Doesn't make you poor at all if anything shoes going the extra mile to save :)

Well you can afford Sharpies! Those aren't the cheapest things on this planet.

ivee been there

this reminds me of cartman, " you're mama is so poor when I saw her walking around with one show and asked if shed lost one she said 'I found one'." Lmao

If it were that easy to just decide to get a higher paying job and then magically get one, I'm sure we'd all be rich.
