Also true on a day to day basis.
If a roll of tp costs $1 and you can save by getting the 6-roll bundle for $5, how much does that one roll cost now?
One dollar.
It still costs a damn dollar because you don't have 5 for the bundle. You have 3 bucks and have to scratch together something to feed the kids.
Being poor is expensive. And it's hard work. And it wears you down.
Yep. All of it.
