All while I was finishing my last semester in college back in 1984.
I'm white. Don't tell me I don't know what it's like to be poor.
I damn' sure know what it takes to get out of that situation too and I did it. If I can do it, anyone can.
I was in similar straits for a while back in 93. Some was self inflicted but I somehow kept going. There were times the best news I could have gotten was that I had some incurable terminal disease.
