Personal Narrative: Little Caesars

596 Words2 Pages

I have been eating 70 cent sandwiches from Seven-Eleven for a fucking week.

Little Caesars is your main pizza spot.
$6 pizza? Dominos will charge you $15 for breathing in their over garlic glazing ass establishment. Little Caesars is all the proof of G-d I need in this world.

“You could buy vegetables if you budgeted.”
My whole life is budgeted. I can’t afford anything. When it comes down to it, I have twenty-five bucks for food this week and it’s going to go a lot further if I buy what I know will last. I usually hear this from people who consider being broke as not having spending money. I don’t have any money. There is no fall back in the bank for me. Mind your business.

Why get a five dollar burger when you could get five one dollar burgers?

Drinking cold water to suppress your appetite.
Water can suppress your appetite, ice water tends to sit in your stomach longer. Ice cubes do nothing. Renee Zellweger lied to us when she said that they suppressed appetites. I do not know Renee Zellweger. I do know that if someone handed me an ice cube instead of food, I would choke them.

I owe my life to ramen noodles.
There have been times in my life where I have bought ramen noodles with some change that I had to hunt for. I have made it in coffee pots, I have ate it uncooked from the package, and I have perfected making it in a cup at a gas station. Ramen is a glowing reminder that everything is going to be okay even if it really sucks right now.

“That’s not good for you.”
No, being poor isn’t good for me. This day old donut is fine.

Table top burners.
You can’t eat tabletop burners, but they come in handy when you have to choose between paying your gas bill or your electric bill. Always pay the electric bill. The gas bill can be put on the back burner, I mean it’s safe there the gas is shut off.

    Another reason people become poor is that they spend their earnings on their "wants" and not on the necessities. That then leads to the realization that they cannot pay rent/mortgage and are evicted. But for the reason to spend their money the way they want was influenced towards bragging rights and/or the "want" to feel a part of the wealthier. Cottom observed that, "Errol Louis and his belief is held by many people, including African Americans, poor people, and formerly poor people that spending money excessively is not logical." Furthermore, it could be an addiction problem for some

  • The Millionaire Next Door By William Danko And Thomas J. Stanley

    1507 Words  | 4 Pages

    The Millionaire Next Door written by William Danko and Thomas J. Stanley illustrates the misconception of high luxury spenders in wealthy neighborhoods are considered wealthy. This clarifies that American’s who drive expensive cars, and live in lavish homes are not millionaires and financially independent. The authors show the typical millionaire are one that is frugal, and disciplined. Their cars are used, and their suits were purchased at a discount. As we read the book from cover to cover are misconceptions start to fade. The typical millionaire is very frugal in all endeavors and finds the best discounts possible. A budget is implemented daily, monthly, and annually for a typical millionaire. They live by the budget and are goal oriented. Living well below their means is crucial for a millionaire, and discovering ways to allocate time and money more efficiently. The typical millionaire next door is different than the majority of America presumes. Let’s first off mention what it is not. The typical millionaire is surprisingly not the individual with the lavish house worth a million dollars, owning multiple expensive cars, a boat, expensive clothes, and ultimately living lavishly. The individual is frugal and often looks for discounts for consumable goods. The book illustrates the typical millionaire in one simple word: frugal. It is shocking to believe that this is true, but it does make sense. To achieve financial independence is inherently more satisfying and important than accumulating wealth. According to the book the majority of these millionaires portray characteristics of being sacrificial, disciplined, persistent and frugal. In the book it states, “Being frugal is the cornerstone of wealth-building. Yet far too often th...

    Freshman year was when asked the age old question: what do I want to do with the rest of my life? For most students my age, this undeniable thought can bring feelings of uneasiness. However, for me, this decision was met with open arms and a positive attitude. Photography is not just some hobby or a talent for me, but a vital part of my identity. Just the same as an athlete dedicating themselves to their sport, I rely on my camera as an essential part of my lifestyle. There is never a place that I will go without a camera tucked neatly inside my bag; never a shot that is not worth taking. It was not long until I found myself as the main event photographer of the biggest music festival in South Jersey. While the students my age dreamed of winning the big game or seeing themselves in a particular field, I was already achieving my dreams and making them a reality.
