BH intentionally walked LP's Arichiega all 4 times she came to bat & LP didn't make them pay. It really looked like the pressure--and LP's lack of experience in many big game situations with all the press coverage--hurt their play. BH obviously has experience in this situation. We'll see what happens today. First game I've actually watched. I think I cursed them. Not watching today just in case. lol

If you ever were actually poor (not just ‘fake poor’), you’ll find many ways to save and not go back. I used to be somewhat of a hoarder myself. There wasn’t a single thing I couldn’t find another use for… Sometimes, I’d get around to doing something with it—when I was wasn’t working OT to pay the bills—and sometimes stuff just piled up. I think I just never had much growing up, so I collected and didn’t throw away. That’s how I see it looking back anyway. I stopped, and cleaned most everything out of our house when my Mom passed away. My folks’ house was a fire hazard from all the junk. There was literally so much (not including storage units) that the EMT’s had to take her out in a body bag because a gurney wouldn’t fit in any door. Wake up call.

I wouldn’t want to be poor. Worked too hard to get a little bit ahead. But, some people today think being poor is a little different than I recall when I was growing up literally dirt poor. Not sure ‘poor’ is still having a $1000 cell phone, expensive sneakers, PlayStations and similar, and at least one big screen tv with some type of streaming service.

Agree. Purchasing power is being hurt across all income levels—except the poor. The poor are still faring the same if they are on government assistance. That may change in 2027 with some of the new rules. Inflation is caused by the government in this case—as almost always. The same people who are claiming they want control to help are the same people that created the mess in the first place. But, there are actually less people in the so-called ‘lower middle class & poverty levels’ than ever before, and it has little to do with government policy.
