Attorneys aren't banks, it's not unreasonable for them to refuse to finance your counsel.

Seriously though, it is astonishing to me how many people are so entitled they just literally cannot understand why someone would have legitimate problems with money.
Not everyone is lucky enough to make a break out of poverty, nor is everyone born in middle class income or above. And yes, breaking out of poverty requires some luck in addition to hard work and determination.
