Christmas Poverty

The time during and after the winter holidays (Christmahannukwanzadan, though Ramadon is not a winter holiday) when everyone has vaccumed out their wallets and sucked their banks dry to buy hundreds of dollars worth of unnecessary cards and presents for people because now such an act is necessary for confirming and sustaining friendly relations.

Since everyone has already starved their wallets, they then proceed to not spend anything until mid-February. As a result us retail workers lose all our hours and not only can we not recover from our own Christmas poverty but we often see the amount of money left in our bank account drop to double digits or even single digits, upon which arises a strong urge to drink--which costs money.

It's a vicious cycle and is often not escaped by the inexperienced and weak of heart.
Oh, shoot; I forgot to save up for this year's Christmas Poverty. Guess I'll starve for a week else not be able to pay rent!!

Are you feeling the Christmas Poverty too?
I feel ya, girl! I got 50 dollars to last me 2 weeks after all the bills.
At least you're on salary.
Yeah, non-paid overtime. Woohoo!

Crap next year I'm saving three hundred dollars to get myself through the Christmas Povery without begging for help from the folks.

It's February 7 today, the Christmas Poverty is FINALLY starting to lift!
by $20 left in my bank account!!! February 26, 2011

relative poverty

Two friends that haven't seen each other in a long time. One just got back from Peace Core.
"Ya, the people in the village have it rough, being in abject poverty, but they kept such a mellow and kind attitude while I was there."

"I can definitely relate, I was in poverty growing up. Dad unemployed by 2008 recession and all."

"Man, you were no where close to a starving African child back then, with your relative poverty. Absolute poverty is not the same. What?--someone dies every ten minutes from a car crash--when 130 die--of only children (age <5) in the same time."

"Holy shit. Why didn't I think about joining?"

"Mehh, it doesn't matter now. What's done, is gone. You could do other stuff to help lessen extreme poverty though."
