To state the obvious, it’s no fun being poor. Living life while struggling to cover all its necessities takes its toll on anyone, and the worst part is that it can come with a load of extra hidden costs. This has recently been highlighted in detail on r/antiwork after u/Paratrooperkid asked Redditors for examples of how poverty can actually turn out to be pretty expensive. The replies offer a grim reminder that those who don’t have the best finances can have a heavier burden to bear than some might think. It’s definitely not a good situation to be in.
