Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

No we've not.

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.

Then how can you afford Internet and a phone?

Ever heard of public libraries?? I'm sorry man. Hope things turn around soon!

also, it's not like I was always broke. just recent turn of events have left me having to stretch my paychecks a little farther then before. moving back with my parents, also not possible. they don't live in the city, i wouldn't be able to work out there.

been there...but on the bright side, at least you still have a home and running water to wash them in.

Everyone on here saying "minimum wage should be enough for soap" clearly has never lived on their own. I lived under the best of circumstances leaving my parents house, I owned my own car and inherited a house I didn't have to pay rent on and minimum wage was still barely scraping by.

To the people saying "can't you live with out a phone?" If they are applying for better jobs, how do you think employers are going to get ahold of them without a phone number to call? And as for internet, its easy to sponge off an open network. (and most applications are online now)

I'm so broke a little African child sponsors me

For all the people saying he has a phone why can he afford soap have you ever heard of a library ? Totally free internet access and also in today’s world a cell phone is very important what if he has a kid if his kid got sick and they couldn’t get ahold of him that could be seen as negligent . Or what if he has an on call job that he would lose if they couldn’t get ahold of him? There are many reasons a phone could be seen as a necessity
