Comment on People who say 'the rich get richer, the lazy live for free, and the middle class pays for it all' don't realize how expensive it is to be rich and how close middle class is to being below the poverty line.

    I bet it’s for their bank. At least in Europe, many banks charger for your account if your income is below a threshold. My partner can’t work full time so I send them like 50€ per month so that they don’t have to pay bank fees. Which is ridiculous, as we have our 3 accounts all at the same bank.

      Nah, he was too young and student too, so not bank income tax yet.

      He just wanted to feel better than those “bottom class losers”. And I do not joke. He study economics.
