It's said that you need to do 3 things in America to avoid poverty.

1. Graduate High School 2. Work full-time 3. Don't have a baby out of wedlock

It's that easy.

Exactly. Unfortunately many fail at step 1.

I see people failing across all 3, often even at the same time. It's a recipe for disaster.
