A place to vent or discuss options for a low-income lifestyle. You don't have to be poor. But you do have to be respectful and recognize that being poor is not something most people choose and the view from 30,000 feet (or even an upper story balcony) is a privileged one that poverty cannot afford. When you are in the thick of it, borrowing money from your parents or selling stocks and bonds is not an option.

1.  Don't ask for money, things, clicks, joins, marketing/sales bullshit, "Likes", or votes. Especially as other Redditors here are also poor and don't need to be scammed or roped into pyramid schemes, this is NOT a place to ask for money or things.

2. There are already subreddit so like /r/budgetfoods, this is not the place to share recipes, or ask about what to buy or eat if you have only X dollars to last Y number of people for Z days. (If you want to talk about gardening or your personal strategies for shopping for food or deals at a brick-and-mortar store (not.on-line), that is fine.)

3. This is not the place to argue about politics or try to get people to sign petitions or vote for certain candidates or parties. You get to vote and talk about politics in /r/politics.

4. You can civilly question someone from a place of humility, but do not attack them or insult them, or call them names.
