The income inequality between Bridgeport, CT and its neighboring towns is striking. Raised on food stamps, one mother is determined to break the cycle of poverty for her family.

I never grew up on food stamps or welfare. I went to College and had a great job. I was a paralegal for 8 years. My boss passed away and unfortunately the firm I worked for shut down. It’s been 5 years and I cannot find a job as a paralegal because I’m over qualified & they rather hire someone fresh out of college & pay less. It’s frustrating. I took any job at this point which is working as a makeup artist. This woman was a teachers assistant & lost her job. Some of you don’t realize how hard it is to find a new job. I know lots of people with college education, with great job experiences & have lost their jobs & cannot find work. She’s trying the best she can, she’s already at her worse so why say negative comments. And another thing, for those saying she should’ve kept her legs closed how many married people who have kids have gotten divorced & decided to leave & forget their kids. How many married men have cheated & have gotten their side piece pregnant. Fathers & mothers who have died & unfortunately left kids behind. You don’t know this woman’s story.

I’m getting really tired of hearing that education is the key to getting out of poverty. While it can certainly help at an individual level, realistically there is no guarantee that you’ll end up with decent paying work simply because you have a degree, a fact made clear by the number of Uber drivers with college degrees. But more importantly, education cannot be a solution on a societal level. If I snapped my fingers right now and gave everyone a PhD it wouldn’t change the fact that pizzas need to be delivered, toilets need to be cleaned, and the people who do these jobs deserve to have a living wage no matter how well educated they are. The solution to ending poverty must start with a $15/hr minimum wage, preferably coupled with a federal jobs guarantee.
@rachaelbrennan116 жыл бұрын
Well, I agree with half of your statement. Someone working at McD’s shouldn’t make as much as someone doing heavy lifting in a warehouse or a caregiver changing adult diapers, but the problem is that those jobs should be paid significantly more than $15 an hour, much closer to $22-$25 or more. The people who earn $25 an hour doing complex financial/administrative work and the like should be earning more than that, closer to $30-$35 an hour. $15 an hour should be the baseline earned for work at the lowest rungs of the employment ladder because it is about as low as you can get and still have a living wage. Everyone’s wages across the board are too low (save for the CEOs and highest ranking employees within most corporations as they often earn literally 1,000 times as much as their average employees) and all of us who aren’t billionaires would benefit from a significantly higher minimum wage.

Jessie Jay yeah! Let’s let the government decide who gets a $15 minimum wage and who doesn’t. Just get rid of minimum wage and it would be 10x better

I took a two week class to get my security "D" license(unarmed) and I make $10:30/h at 32/h a week, it's not enough to afford a $600 apartment here in Tampa, FL. So ya, the struggle is real!

The government does not owe you anything it's up to the person that they are having 4 kids I would never think of having four kids you have to think ahead of time the rent the education for the kids the clothes the food Etc Just because you have an education doesn't guarantee high-paying job. She has four kids doesn't she get something for each child that she has which should not be. She's the adult she needs to act like it and think like an adult. Nothing is owed to you in life .

After a lot of pain and not having anyone. I didnt have mommy and daddy like many others, or a car paid for, Or clothes other expenses etc. I had to and will ALWAYS work for me and mine. More people need to get off of the fucking pitty pot, stop feeling sorry for themselves and eating themselves into a coma and DO something about their lives!!!

Education? Not on the sense this video shows. If college was key then every person with a degree would be rich or even have a job. Its not in the education system. It's having a financial mindset to know the difference between assets and liabilities. You need the RIGHT type of education. You will never be in poverty if you buy assets with your income. How do you make more money.. buy more assets. The issue is people waste their money on STUFF.. 20 here 50 there.. most waste a min of 10 percent of their income to things they dont even remember. Then complain they need more money.. no.. you need to learn to spend the money you make in a better way.

Actually it is easy. Our minds trick us into thinking its hard. Go to the library and check out financial books. Read them and then do what they say. People are broke because they don't save money. They don't save money because they were never taught why they should. Some Seek knowledge Like me and are always learning, and others have to be told what to do. She is obviously not content being in that position.. but she's not doing anything about it for if she was the news would not have exploited her for this program. Yes Exploited meaning they made money off the program but the woman that the program was about got nothing for it. You can't build an empire if you never build the foundation. First you have to DECIDED you want an empire. Then you have to learn HOW to build it. It's not a matter of income or lack of one, its all about the decisions you make. Decisions come first, Then the money, then the empire. And back to your statement Yes actually it does, Every asset you have means you will never be broke. Assets are the path to financial freedom. You come in this world naked and alone, and you go out the same way, The only difference between how you come in and how you go out are the choices you made while here.

Raver Magik But not everyone get's the luxury of making every major decision in their life, unfortunately outside influences do have an affect on peoples lives. In the ideal upbringing of a person they would likely be able to freely make the decisions they would want, however this world isn't painted perfectly and every person has a different story. Maybe for the majority what you're saying is correct, but for the other side not so much. Take a few steps in another mans shoes and talk to the people in poverty to see how they ended up there, you might be shocked to hear it's not because they didn't go to a library and read a book on finances.

Hmm lets see, I came from a Broken family in poverty. My family life was so bad I would be beat and tortured by my brother, My mom and step dad were both drunks. My family struggled every month to pay their bills, not because they didn't make the money but because just like their income they never PLANNED anything. They spent money as soon as it comes in. Their habits costed them their wealth and their health. As I got of age and got my first job I did the same thing, Until i met a local millionaire. He drove up to my work and i had the luxury of helping him carry out an item to his car. As we talked I told him what i wanted in life was to retire early, He smiled and said eh retirement means shit if you don't have the income for it. He gave me his card and left. I called him and asked him if he would have lunch with me, i had some questions. That day changed my life. He told me, the rich are not smarter per say, we just do things differently. Like planning, and we are better money managers. Did you know The rich plans 10+ years out. So they plan to buy a building today In 10 years. So they never saved for anything. Think of it this way. Christmas is the SAME time every year. But every year people struggle to buy presents and stuff for their family. If they saved 1 dollar a day. they would have 300+ dollars by the time christmas comes around. Same thing for birthdays and such. He taught me that its not the income that matters, rather what you save from it as well as what you spend your money on. Habits cost money, Drugs, drinking, all the way down to the coffee a person drinks daily all impact your wealth. The wealthy understand this, So they plan big expenses over 10 years, as well as they monitor their habits and change them if needed. Im not rich by any means, however Im not struggling any more either. He told me the more you learn the more you earn, and if you learn something and become a master at it you can charge a premium for it. I run my own business now and My wealth grows every day. I dont look down on poverty because its where i came from. However I do despise their mentally that they think they cant change and it is what it is. When you learn more, you instantly change. Because you have more knowlege to work from than you did before. If I taught you a skill like baking.. Are you or are you not more valuable in your own life because you can do another job. Every skill you learn allows you to access more money job wise or business wise. I have been studying wealth for 20+ years now, I dont know it all, but i am WAY more valuable than when i was 17 and broke.. My situation changed because I changed. I changed because i received more knowledge. Now i dont plan 10+ years, but i do plan 3 years out, as well as I have 1 goal.. and every day as long as i am getting closer to my goal I know i am moving in the correct direction. Its not about your income stream. Its how you manage it and the knowledge you have or don't have will either make you a slave to money or make money your slave.

Being a good mother has nothing to do with being rich or poor. There are more financially stable mothers who are crack heads, pill poppers, and alcoholics than there are mothers like her.They put on for the outside world, but the home life is f**ked up and so are the children. There are plenty of opportunities for underprivileged teens to attend college and make a future for themselves regardless of the mistakes their parent/s made.Not everyone who grows up poor has a sorry mindset.Atleast she is not scheming the government for help. There are more whites on welfare and commiting welfare fraud than any other race in America.

Could be in prison. But let's factor in 1) these kids dad's probably have no so great paying jobs themselves if they are in our society 2) they are likely to have kids by other women besides her so 3) the child support taken must be distributed to all women involved if #2 is the case. The most they can garnish is 34%. So even if all these kids do have the same dad let's say he manages to get paid after taxes $1,000 month just to make the math easy the most she'll receive is $340 and that's assuming he's only impregnated her and no other women. BUT it's likey NOT all the same father and these men are likely to have impregnated other women besides her. If a man has shit for brains and he's stupid enough to have 6 different kids by 6 different women. Well assuming he's actually in society as aposed to in prison he's NOT likely to have a job that pays that well. So he manages to net just over $1,000/ month. $340 a tad more. That must then be distributed amungsed thoes 6 different women from the child support agency. So do the math each woman ends up with about $60/ month.

2:06. “The only difference between us is how much we have in the bank”. WRONG. You spit out 4 kids early in life before having your financial life in order. The woman doing the interview focused on education and establishing a sustainable life trajectory before having children. There are rules of life that can not be taken out of order. #1) Education - develop a skill, trade, or base of knowledge that is capable of providing financial reward. 2). Work hard to differentiate yourself in your career and become invaluable to your employer. 3). Begin to build your “financial house” - live well within your means and save instead of consume. THEN, and only then....4) Focus on your personal life. Find a good partner, fall in love, get married and have 1 or 2 children. This woman ignored the rules of life and now she’s paying the price. Nothing can help her at this point, I’m sorry to say.

I went to a private high school in a nice neighborhood that my town paid for (I was extremely fortunate to be able to go there), and many of my friends and the other students there came from wealthy backgrounds. But we still got along very well, which was awesome.

We wait to get married before we have kids and then have two or three tops if we can afford to after being forced to pay for other people’s government assistance. Many women in my town suffered through grueling and expensive fertility treatments because they delayed childbearing into their late 30’s after they had established their careers and purchased homes where the schools were high quality. We are all human beings who make choices. The income isn’t equal because the personal responsibility isn’t equal.

In the USA the poorest 80% of the citizens possess about 7% of the Wealth. Whatever happened to the Middle Class? Most poor people in my family or circle of acquaintances actually work and many work a lot harder than I do. My job is stressful but "clean" and I make over triple the Minimum Wage. I know people that are paid a dollar or two above the Minimum Wage and work damned hard in nasty, almost slavish jobs. American INEQUALITY is probably our greatest shame. We have plenty of money but how it is dispersed is shameful. Per capita GDP is about $54,000 but the average family of four lives on about $65,000. 90% or our created Wealth goes to the top 5% of our citizens. What is wrong with this picture??

65,000 a year? Where is that at? I live on less than 18,000 a year, no food stamps, with two kids, I own my home, but without the pantry to supplement food, I would starve or have to ask friends for help. Take Chicago, people were blaming everything on illegal workers, but shouldn't you blame the people who hired them? The media is the most brainwashing thing out there. People say Black people should get a job, but since this is a sanctuary state, employers rather pay under the table or minimum wage for hard labor jobs, so they were not hiring young Black men or women, like they use to and would only hire illegals or HIspanics. Go to a job where they have temp workers, they are mostly Black, I go sometimes, in between jobs. The trend was so popular, that a lot of young people stop trying to get jobs at McDonalds and other teen related jobs, because they knew they would be turned down, especially if the manager was White (Hispanic) They stop trying. Now more jobs are opening downtown and a lot are working now. I used to do deliveries for the majority of the kitchens downtown Chicago and Ravenswood. No Black cooks or sous chefs in any of the kitchens. Yet we have the largest amount of Black culinary students between Kennedy King and Gordon Bleu. Where are they working? or are they graduating and going home, and ending up on welfare.

the insensitivity in these comments is appalling. it's not her fault that her kids' dad(s) left. even if he had stayed, it's damn near impossible to break the cycle of poverty especially when these adults have surely been poor their whole life and can't afford to get higher education to provide for their kids. it isn't as simple as "don't have kids and get a good job" these people cannot think to use protection to avoid having more children or think about long term benefits from investing in education, the only thing on their minds is staying afloat. my mother was on food stamps after my dad left. her background allowed her to think ahead in a way that people who have been raised in poverty cannot. my mother was taught that the debt she acquired from going back to school (got her BA and MS in applied engineering, hows that for lazy welfare moms?) was worth the better salary. these people have only learned to see the debt, not the eventual payoff. it isn't a matter of laziness or selfishness, it's the lack of education that keeps them having more children, getting more welfare, and keeping their children in poverty. hopefully initiatives like this will help that little girl and boy break that cycle
