I agree with this 100%. I am the only income provider in our household & no matter how much overtime I do we never seem to get ahead. We will never ever be able to own our own home at this rate. Everything is so expensive. Running a car, kids school, all the insurances
What’s the point of having to work your arse off to make ends meet & miss out on your family growing up.
Sometimes it’s so hard making ends meet it makes me think is it all worth it being on this planet anymore. But then I think about my kids & wife. I couldn’t do it to them.
