What do you recommend?

And how do you recommend pursuing this skilled career when you don’t even have enough money for food, clothes and shelter?

I mean that’s pretty much a working definition of poverty and I’m really curious how easy you think it is to do when you’re hungry, dirty and tired.

America provides food and housing assistance for people living under extreme poverty.

Once you have a stable base it’s a matter of hard work.

Based on your comments, you probably never had a need for food and housing assistance. There's a huge chasm between "extreme poverty" and "stable base" and millions of people are stuck. At least one billionaire profits from keeping people in that limbo: https://publicintegrity.org/inequality-poverty-opportunity/w...

I grew up in poverty under a single mother. My family’s yearly income was never more than $10K growing up. I have the income tax statements to prove it.

I went to the absolute worst schools. Literally F schools.
