Chris Martin knew he needed a bigger car as the birth of his fourth child approached, but he and his wife were already $14,000 underwater on their two vehicles.
So the couple proposed an unusual two-for-one deal with an Atlanta-area auto dealer in 2020: trading in both of their vehicles so they could afford a three-row Ford Explorer. Their total loan after factoring in negative equity, a service contract, fees and other costs ballooned to $66,000 on the $49,000 Explorer.
4 kids, in debt, and a price-bloated SUV. If this ain't 'murican, I don't know what is.

Idk my dad was making 300k+ in a similar role when I was in school and he had no problem having paid off cars, house, paying for college. This guy may just be r-slurred or house poor.
I'd put money on rather than saving money on childcare his wife works too. My sister works at a daycare in Atlanta, it costs more a month than my mortgage for a 2.5 story, 3 acre house in the Midwest. Also her rent is more than my mortgage, it's a 2 bedroom apartment where she can't even let her kid play outside.
So basically house poor and r-slurred, like most of Atlanta

You genuinely can't tell what tech roles do just by the name. This dude could just be hand keying pdf data because his company is too incompetent to implement ocr.

I bet these people post "I wish they taught financial literacy in school" memes on Facebook. They do, you didn't pay attention. I also bet the dad works at Nunya Business too.
They absolutely are, $44k for a 2023 Caravan and the price declines quite steeply. The 2008s have bulletproof motors in them and can be had for a song, but even the 2010s ones are not too expensive and rly good

Hello, welcome to 'I see the poors are pretending to be big wallet gangstas again'
This hole exists as a safe space for refugees from the Facebook(MetaTM groups of the same name. Of which there have been several iterations. We mostly exist to poke fun at the state of living in poverty. While it oftentimes is unavoidable, we do aspire to not be meanspirited. Over the years we have co-opted the term 'Peak Poor' to being someone who exudes poverty, regardless of their actual net worth. Trump and Elon both exhibit the peak poor ethos from time to time while still being the top 0.000001%. You can do something peak poor and still be a good person or a generally adjusted one. We all have a bit of poor in us.
We basically fill a niche similar to fatpeoplehate with a bit less actual malice.
PeakPoor is shotgunning mountain dews at 5 years old.
PeakPoor is not people dying of poverty. While technically the greatest heights of poverty is succumbing to it this is not funny, and is a failure
of capitalism. We do not make fun of poverty to be mean spirited such as that.
Read the room, if it's punching down too hard or really digging into someone whos a sympathetic character it doesn't belong here. (basically READ THE ROOM)

Subscribe to this hole, it's important that we get our numbers up. Love numbers = peak poor
Bonus points for making your post title some variation of peak poor. (Pinnacle of Poverty, Prowess of the Penniless)
I am looking for a mod who will help me grow this place and encourage the facebook community where the majoryity of our members reside
to migrate. Contact me if interested.
I really do love you all so very much, i'm even spending drama coin to get some banners and marseys. thanks for being a part of the community.

I guess the 3 kids killed any chance of this guy building up any sort of equity.
