we got WIC... they brought milk, Kix cereal, eggs and cheese.
We used to wait on the corner in the snow in akron, OH... waiting for uncle to drive by after work so he could take us someplace.   we had AMHA housing... made our way from the crack neighborhood to trailer park in south florida. 
mac n chz, and tuna patties 4 nights a week, bologna the other 3 nights.  meals on wheels for summer.

these days, being middle class feels like millionaire status :) 
4 BR house with double den > double wide trailer with palmetto bugs falling thru holes in roof. 
Can't stop smiling, looking back at those days.

We were so poor, my folks used to buy all our clothes from the ex-army store.

For 10 years, I went to school dressed as a Japanese General.

Grew up in communist Romania with many restrictions and sometimes rationalized food. But my folks took care of us and we never missed anything. I had a simple but happy childhood.

I was one of six, and we were so poor that at breakfast we had to eat cereal with a fork and pass the milk down to the next child

Fuck you all

I was that kid in the sahara with the distended gut and flies around the mouth, even Michael Jackson was offended by my looks he edited me out of his "Heal the World" video. He thought Id be more suitable for Thriller 2, which never materialized.

We didn't even get food stamps...there was no food, I just ate the stamps. Now that's fucking poor.

both my parents were social workers so not well off but not poor. 1/3 of kids at my school got free meals though due to low family income.

Hahaha yes I can imagine the responses from little Anabol:

"We were so poor growing up that I had to follow dad on my bike when I was 5, wait for him to fuck a 20 dollar whore and then steal back my child support from her purse when she got out his car"

The kids in my school all had fountain pens in their top pockets.
I couldnt afford a fountain pen, in fact, I couldnt afford a top pocket.
