I too lived on a dollar or less a day before becoming the lower middle class person I am today. It’s easy when your parents buy everything for you and you don’t have expenses.
Bitch, you came from an emerald mine, walkin’ the streets with gems in your pockets. Shut the fuck up.

Oh no, I think Elon downvoted you.
I would be very surprised if someone born into wealth like Elon Musk ever dumpster dived for a burger or chicken nugget.
No. I did that once (as a middle class person too proud to accept daddy’s help) and it was fucking awful. I lasted 8 months before I had to consult Bank of Dad, which I’m pretty impressed by, but everything about it sucked. I would steal loaves of bread from bakeries at 4am, as they’d leave them outside to cool. I’d go to late night chippies and make up stories about being on a great adventure for charity so they’d give me free chips, I’d buy my clothes from a market that sold soiled and ripped clothing donated from fast fashion stores, and I’d hand sew them back to acceptability so I could wear them. We’d dumpster dive, forage, and beg, and it still wasn’t enough. Rent started going on credit cards, I discovered new addictions I couldn’t afford just to cope with the pain of no heating, shitty food, and a general feeling of desperation. And I had a fucking safety net, I was nowhere near the suffering of most people at this kind of poverty line.
Elon is a rich prick. I got a momentary taste of poverty and it was fucking awful. He would have caved in a day.
Paragraphs learn them.
Commas, use them.
You got me.
What a fucking liar
“I saved up all week to buy one banana for $7, and that sustained me the rest of the next week!”
-Elon Musk, clueless asshole
Edit: Fun fact: Elon could read this a dozen times and still not get the joke.
Here’s ten dollars go see a Star war.
Back when rent was $30
Then he doesn’t need billions of dollars, right?
I completely believe that he was making 1$ a day at some point, he’s just neglected to talk about the 20 million he had in the bank from daddy.
or the other thousands of dollars he also
madeacquired that day
Alternative headline suggestion: “Rich liar lies”.
Do it again. Now.
Rent is more than a dollar a day. Without a place to code, he never would have been able to work on PayPal. If he slept in his car and worked in an office, gas is still more expensive than a dollar a day unless he moved his car only on the weekends. In short. No he didn’t. Someone else footed the bill and he only paid a buck a day for maybe food. Not as tough as doing it on your own, which he’s never done.
What a fellating fallacious piece of filth that read was. Could they suck him off any harder without ripping his dick off? I submit that they cannot.
“Why don’t you just eat cake?”
As long as you aren’t sleeping in your bed when the police get the wrong address, or sleeping in an encampment when the police decide to steal all your belongings for living while poor, or kicked out of the library for not having access to a bathroom, or finding yourself in a grocer, mall, concert hall, theatre, school, etc on a day a shooter decides to show up.
Also you can’t survive on $1 per day without someone caring for you. That will not keep you off the streets and fed, and it will most definitely not cover fees for access to self improvement resources or recovery.
