No economist has ever explained the trap of being poor better than Terry Pratchett's boots theory.
A wealthy man buys a $200 pair of boots that lasts ten years.
A poor man can only afford $40 boots that leak after six months, so he spends $800 over the same ten years and still has wet feet.
Poverty isn't just a lack of money.
It's a continuous subscription fee for not having capital up front.

Don’t bother to ask me to DM you. Life’s too short.

When the love of your life dies your heart breaks into a million pieces. But as the years go by I’ve come to learn that even if it’s broken it’s not empty. It’s still full of all the love that you shared. Hold on to that. #grief
