Sorry mate, the fact that you could ever consider a consistent $100/day wage to be poverty trumps the OP for the most spoilt, uninformed comment - on any forum

Sorry mate, the fact that you could ever consider a consistent $100/day wage to be poverty trumps the OP for the most spoilt, uninformed comment - on any forum - I have ever seen.
Get out more.

- nisegami 5y agoYou've totally misread the comment you're replying to. The person described is not money-poor, but time-poor and energy-poor. These people can afford experiences but given their lifestyle, it isn't really feasible to partake in them compared to buying things like a new TV or phone.
- throwaway210222 5y agoI disagree. I think you'll find high-income finance/law/medicine/entrepeneur types are even more time and energy constrained. Yet, I doubt the poster would be bleating about them. There is a nasty polemic (especially prevalent on HN) that any possible advice about personal choices must be from some racially-narrow, empathy-lacking urbane perspective. And the poster also suggests that coloured folk can neither perceive, nor possibly comment that that a group of largely overweight, sedentary, reasonably affluent people stuck to 70" TVs shouldn't perhaps just go for a walk. Occasionally, on the weekend.
