For some people it's cheaper to have a cell phone then a house phone. We NEED phones to call for help and have people easily get In contact with us, it just depends on what type you get.

To all people posting "but you can afford internet/phone", have you ever heard of free WiFi, library internet access, local hotspots, or the fact FML is a website? Or the fact all his money goes to bills, food, and possibly loan payments? Ever think of that?

Bah, I was feeling all warm inside seeing my fellow heartless bastards berating op for not having the money management skills to obtain modern life's necessities on her obviously limited budget.

He's broke, A.K.A. he has no money. He's not a real life Mr. Krabs expy.

THE_A_TEEN posted one comment above you. The last comments show up on the home page; were you too lazy to actually read it? Either way, there is no excuse.

My point is is that he should be budgeting his money for things that are essential to daily living, there is such thing as the dollar store that can meet those needs. And no i dont read every comment sorry to inconvenience you *roll of eyes*

Yes, because bills, inconveniences, and basic living priorities(like food) don't exist and won't suck your wallet dry. And maybe, just maybe, he's not broke all the time and has just enough to squeeze past by these past months.

You do realize that the library is free, right? He might have a work computer and people at McDonald's don't tell you to leave for using their wi-fi. Grow a brain, kid.

How much is you're job paying you if your this broke and also what are you spending your money on?
THE_A_TEEN 28
It's called bills and priorities(Food, water, clothes, hygiene). And he could have a minimum wage job.

Rent, food, utilities, etc. A lot of jobs pay barely enough to cover those.

Wow. I've never seen someone use your/you're incorrectly TWICE in the same sentence. Congratulations.

When you have money to spend again, look up 'home made laundry soap'. lol
beatlegirl27 20
OP most likely has a low paying job and probably gets paid MINIMUM WAGE so STFU selfish loser

Home-made laundry soap is made with household items that OP already has, stupid attention *****.
