It’s why I almost never take Americans seriously when they say they ‘need’ more money. They don’t know what that word means, or what hard work really is.

Sure. We don’t work hard. Talk to me when you have spent 25 years in American kitchens to fund your own businesses, the first 5 of which never took off, but also consistently failed to drive me into bankruptcy. The 6th one finally works for me, and I’m finally not having to work 18 hour days 7 days a week.
Yeah. That’s definitely working harder than most people have throughout history for less.
My bad.
the first 5 of which never took off, but also consistently failed to drive me into bankruptcy.
Lol, don’t blame your failed business ventures on me. If you think ‘hard work’ is all it takes to make a successful business, I’m sorry, that’s just a testament to why 5 of your businesses failed.
and I’m finally not having to work 18 hour days 7 days a week.
Let me guess, you’re also living a higher quality of life than the vast majority of people ever to live while working considerably less. And here you are, still finding ways to complain.
Lol. Thanks for proving my point.

Oh really? Americans don’t ever need more money? How about these Americans? They’re doing fine on whatever they can panhandle from people leaving the Walmart parking lot and dumpster food?

United States owns 30% of the worlds wealth while having the 4.2% of the worlds total population, though. Does a group of people need more food ehen most of them are starving because a few of them hoarded 95% of it and are sitting on it doing nothing…?

The claim was that you shouldn’t take Americans seriously when they say they need more money. I would say those Americans should be taken seriously if that’s what they say, especially the ones with full-time jobs who are still living in tents because the rent is too high.

Move out of the major city. Nobody is entitled to live there. Supply and demand.

Looks like they’re living in a major city.
Supply and demand.
They can leave and their money will go way further. The problem is, a lot of people living in major cities feel they’re entitled to do so.

I don’t live in a major city and we have the same thing here. So no.
