Caleb's looking a little fatter and more unkempt, diet's not working
Most of the video is just circling back again and again to his r-slurred spending habits and weird deflections, he's got an incredibly soporific manner to him, made me forget to add timestamps for some of this
35 years old
He's living (for free) with his parents who he blames for his bpd depression based on things he read online. He dislikes his parents and spends all his time at home hiding in his room.
- His complaints about them sound like reddit nonsense
He's making 40'000 a year with no real expenses and blowing it all somehow
He tried to go to a couple therapists but they both turned him away?
Previous job he "forced" his manager to fire him because he had an extended foid moment
Now works at a gas station job which he hates but he's too lazy to get a new one
He has one friend who he met through online vidya and the way he talks about him makes it seem like a quasi-romantic relationship
- Mentions later that he sends this friend money sometimes and then gets repaid him later? timestamp
He was homeless in a car at some point then moved back in with his parents after losing his previous job
He's got some loans or something that he didn't bother looking at the agreements for?
Claims he used to sell houses for a living making 30'000 a month and blew it all timestamp

Fellow poors notice she has a YouTube Premium subscription
EDIT 4: Some people are asking and criticizing why I paid for YouTube at one point, why am I rejecting donations, etc. Listen. I'm an imperfect human being. I made all kinds of bad decisions in my life , especially financially, and ultimately contributed to my own suffering. I brought myself here. I wasn't a good son or brother to my family. I'm not incapable of redemption, but I strongly feel I don't deserve that kind of help people are offering. Please just respect my decision. I will be ok. This suffering will pass. And there are many out there who are suffering more than I am. But thank you to those of you who are leaving kind and thoughtful words as well as practical advice (which I will follow and need). Thank you.
Bro get the frick up out of here. Seriously. You don't know what the frick work I've been putting in lately. Yes I made mistakes and I'm owning up to it. I've still got interviews lined up next week. And I had an interview at Lowe's today. Quit judging like a peepeehead and acting like you know my character. I'm not out here begging for money. I was merely venting, mind you after a full day of applying and going in person to places. Don't know what the frick is with you judgmental pricks, acting like you've never made mistakes in your life. Get off your high horse
Big brain poorcel has an ingenious way to save like $2 monthly on their luxury
Just use free vpn and make new YouTube account based out of South Africa. Comes out to like $4 a month. Don't have to use the vpn anymore once it's created. Can do this for many streaming services. India is typically the cheapest but YouTube cracked down on that one
Several redditors too fricking r-slurred to spend 30 seconds installing adblock insist that YouTube is UNUSABLE because of all the ads and they simply need YouTube as their sole source of entertainment () because it's the only escape from their life of constant misery
Me and I'm on disability.
Youtube is basically my only source of entertainment and I can't stand how many ads a single video will have nowadays
It's not a little ad, it is 80% ads, it's literally unusable without premium.
I decided to get it last week. I don't have any other streaming services and have been using YouTube exclusively for about a year for entertainment. They have increased the number of ads to the point that it is ridiculous. I was watching a 30 odd minute video and averaged about 3 ads that I could not skip about every 4 to 5 minutes. I haven't used the music part yet, but when I go back to work on Tuesday I'll have something thing to listen to at my desk.
No thanks. Then I can't have it on my Xbox or TV.
Which I use to help escape from my shit disease.
Is it a coincidence that people who can't find jobs or manage their finances would rather pay monthly fees than type "adblock" into Google and click a button to install?

The U.K. fell into recession at the end of last year as the cost-of-living crisis continued to weigh heavily on productivity and consumer spending.
The British economy shrank by 0.3 percent in the final three months of 2023, according to the Office of National Statistics, marking the second quarterly contraction in a row and meeting the definition of a "technical recession."
Analysts had broadly expected a recession, but today's drop was a full 0.2 percentage points lower than forecast.
Though some analysts expect the recession to be temporary, the figures deal a blow to efforts by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to paint a rosier picture of the economy in what is expected to be an election year.
On Tuesday, Sunak told business executives that the U.K. economy had "turned a corner" and was being widely forecast to grow in 2024.
According to the ONS, the downturn at the close of 2023 was broad-based, led by a 1.3 percent fall in construction and followed by manufacturing and services, with a slowing in recreational activities and auto purchases. U.K. trade and household consumption also struggled.
Business investment increased by 1.4 percent.
Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey has downplayed fears of a prolonged recession, telling the House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee on Wednesday that he expected a "modest pick-up" to take place later in the year.
"The U.K. economy is likely to continue to flirt with recession for most of this year," Marc Ostwald, chief economist at ADM Services International, said.
"Rates will remain high, even if there are a few cuts later in the year, with little or no fiscal room, and trade with Europe likely to suffer as economies there face a similar outlook," he added.
Inflation is at least starting to slow again, having defied expectations of a small pick-up in December, according to data released Wednesday.
But even that good news was tempered by the suggestion from the Bank of England's Bailey that there would be no imminent lowering of borrowing costs.

Posted to peakpoors because everyone here is seething about not having enough money to buy noise-cancelling headphones to avoid children.
The thing these mongs don't realise is that a childfree seating arrangement already exists. It's called business class (nobody is paying for a two-year old to sit in business when you can have fun inflicting them on all the seethers in cattle) and if you're smart enough to churn credit cards for points you don't even need to pay for it. I fly business basically everywhere I go and just churn through 4-6 credit cards a year to keep me in points.

It's almost as if it was a deliberate and concerted effort to collapse Western Society since this is also happening in New Zealand, Australia, the UK, and Western Europe at the same time. I know Blackrock is the architect behind Canada's situation(read about the Century Initiative) but wonder who's orchestrating the rest?
There must be something linking people like Larry Fink of Blackrock, Stephen Schwarzman of Blackstone, Klaus Schwab and other players at the WEF besides money. My guess is they want to destabilize and undermine the West to have control over it somehow.

America really is a crappy country. I live in rural Australia in my own house with an excellent paying job with no degree and I take yearly international holidays.
I'm a cleaner that makes $33 AUD ($21USD) per hour.
I have $16,000AUD saved toward a house deposit (aiming for $35000AUD).
I can afford dental and other special care and I rent a 2 bedroom house for $150AUD per week because I chose to live rural.
I work part time because I don't like to work too hard and I can STILL afford vacations yearly, have an investment account and put money toward retirement. I have a lot of money in my retirement for a 26 year old.
Why am I bragging? Because I WANT YOU TO HAVE THIS LIFE TOO! Fight the government for it!!! It's your right to live a decent life and afford healthcare. Your government knows other countries have universal healthcare and access to housing yet your government chooses to make things hard for you. Your government wants you to be poor and keep you hungry. Demand better! Start a riot! Riot monthly. Set shit on fire!
That's what a government is supposed to do. And then they provide services, health, infrastructure and education to the people with it.
But that doesn't happen in the United States of America. They take all of our money and then they want us to pay for all those things on top of it. And then they tax us for it too. And we're all too stupid, fat and lazy to get together and start a revolution.
Holy shit, kill all redditors and poors

open question to non reddit soys because I am interested, my general impression is that these people are still fat as heck and order doordash 6 times a week while paying off a 100k car on credit.
If you make like 15$/hr mcdonaldings in America are are not r-slurred how is quality of life actually.
in the UK min wage generally means probably having to house share if you live in an urban area and having to eat non brand food
