Today, I realized how poor I am when I had to use sharpies to color in the worn spots on my dress shoes before leaving for work. FML

OP here. Thanks lol. That's actually exactly what I was doing. I'm only 21, and I work in a very professional office, and I always need to look my best. I can't afford new shoes at the time, so that's why I sharpied them.

Sounds like you need your priorities straight. You can afford internet, but not shoes, yet you have a job?

Dress shoes are expensive bro.. I have a job and the Internet but after paying off my car loan, phone and Internet bills and rent, I couldn't afford shoes at the moment either..

So where does your money go? If you drink and or smoke, please don't say you are poor, you are just shit with money is all! ;)

OP here, I do not smoke anything. It's a waste of money to smoke. I do drink every now and then, but haven't in a while. My money all goes to bills. Super fun being an adult. lol

Been there, done that, and still doing it. Sharpies rule.

i have been poor all my life & have done that a lot

Don't worry, you know your life has taken a turn for the worst when your using superglue on the soles of your shoes. You have a ways to go.

Been there :/. Does work pretty good though!

Umm your priorities are twisted. You might want t trade in that smartphone for a cheap flip phone. The money you save can go to some new shoes

I don't recall the FML saying anything about the OP owning a smart-phone, but ok.

I actually don't own a smartphone; I hate them. I have a cheap Samsung T404G, Straight talk phone from Walmart.
