fasting

-generic drugs over brand names like (Tylenol)
-If you have a costco, buy kirkland brands. For example kirkland batteries are from the same manufactories from Duracell. Or you can save money long term by just buying rechargeable batteries.
-Credit cards. Some offer 3% cash back and rotating categories. Try to avoid credit cards with annual fees unless you can rationalize it.
-meal prep.
-get plants and grow them yourself like basil, thyme and so forth

Some grocery stores will do late night discount when they about to toss away their hot foods and so forth at night. If you're one of those late night shoppers, you can see what they have.

It's pretty incredible imo.
One fat teen who was fed up with being an butter elemental actually did her budget on just snacks for the year (so not counting the meals her mom made) and she spent something in the ballpark of like 12,000 dollars on just snacks and junk food in a year. In 2 and a half months she spend the same amount on snacks as I spent on food for 2 people for an entire year. And the kicker is she was 300 lbs. Idk how the fuck the 600 lbers do it.

>>17290073

but what teenager has $12k a year?

don't smoke weed before going to the grocery store. you'll come home with chips, dips and pizza.

>>17289764
Get a job and you will have money to spend on food. A bottle of hot sauce better than fast food packets costs like $3. If your time isn't worth more than that you should probably just kill yourself - but do it out in the woods so that you can feed the squirrels or whatever.

life ain't always easy. I used to work with a few people who lived in a place like that, they drove 2.5 hours each way to get to the factory we worked at. also worked 12 hour shifts. 17 hours a day just to barely scrape by. of course theirs no sex education where they came from, so they had no idea the reason they kept having kids was because they didn't use birth control. one couple had 14 kids under the age of 16. every one of them damn near ready to starve to death at a moment's notice.

beyond me how they even qualify. You got veteran boomers with blown off legs that get denied 5 times over. How do these fat fucks have the energy to apply like 25 times to get gibs? Hunger is a powerful force I suppose.

Poverty and ignorance. That was a phrase one of my elementary school teachers said to me when I ran into her years later and we were talking about something or other, and its always stuck with me. Some people just don't know any better and are stuck in a vicious cycle where they're just trying to hold onto what they have, and have no clue that it didn't have to be that way because there was nobody there who cared enough to tell them otherwise.

>>17290584
Huge amount of people in the Appalachians that had their local economy collapse when coal mines closed. Instead of leaving they just get on gibs. Infrastructure changes won't help those places.

>>17290584
I would love to say it's because they're out of touch, but I'm sure it's intentional to keep the people poor and stupid, which keeps them voting for the people fucking them over. At least the part I live in now is doing pretty well. The average job that you can get without even a HS diploma pays ~$18hr, and cost of living is still low, really nice 4 bedroom houses still go for around $150k. In another 250 years the whole state will probably be doing okay.
>>17290586
if you spend every bit of your income on travel expenses and food it's hard to save money. the couple I described was making $13.50hr each, and had to rent a house big enough for all those kids, plus all the driving as I said, and it's all winding hilly roads, no highways, in old ass beat up cars. And of course they have to pay to have someone take care of the kids for around 18 hours a day. The shit all adds up to taking your entire paycheck, even with some gibs on top of it. And sure they get a big tax refund every year, but they're completely uneducated and end up wasting it, or spending it on school clothes, or a newer car, or fixing up all the holes in their roof, etc.

>>17290614
I'm talking about graduating, looking around and seeing no job prospects, and thinking I'll just stay here. I could understand it before the internet but now its just crazy to me.

>>17290611
>Infrastructure changes won't help those places
I was thinking more of the "human infrastructure" shit that's been getting blocked recently. Childcare, early education, community college, broadband, investing in alternative energy sources and job training. Meanwhile most of these deep red states are just like, "let's go brandon!" and, I'm sorry for the cliche, but they're literally voting against their own economic interests. I don't blame them. Once again, it's poverty and ignorance, but they're being fed misinformation and misplaced fear and hate. It's just fucking bizarre to me.

Breakfast means first meal of the day. Doesn't matter when. It's the most important meal because it's the one that breaks your fasted state. What you eat first is what reintroduces your body to fuel and wakes your metabolism.

>>17289764

The elites don't want you to know this, but the ducks in the park are free. I have 100 lbs of pickled duck meat in my freezer. Completely free

>>17289886
none of these are wrong per se, but getting generic drugs, recharging your AAs, growing your own basil is probably a savings of 20 bucks a year combined, you're better off focusing your energy on saving on the things you buy on a weekly or monthly basis, rather than batteries for the TV remote every 6 months, a bottle of tylenol that will last past its expiration date, or some herbs that would last in your pantry for a year and a half

It would make a difference, except the guy from Kentucky is blocking anything from getting done while telling people, "look, nothing works!" It's really not that complicated. it's not like one side is free from special interests and power, but come on, at least they're trying to make things better.

Tell that to my state that legalized it for medicinal and recreational.

>>17290680
It's better to go even a step before saying "they're voting against their interests" and ask them what did you really care about when you woke up this morning. Before you got plugged in and checked your phone. Before you were fully awake and had your coffee or shower. Did you really care about... all. That. Shit. Online? Did you care about it 5 years ago, 10? Was it a certain app that got you to care so much? What was it and when? And you go back and you ask them, listen, come outside and touch grass with me for a while. You will see that what you really care about is life and liberty.

Beyond that, I'm not eating beyond meat because I have tons of meat options around me. Go to a butcher and never go to the meat section again if you don't want to eat it.

So where do you get your information from, anon? Facebook? /pol/? Joe Rogan? You're getting information from somewhere, and don't say you're "doing your own research", because you're not.

>>17290713
So by suggesting "dont skip breakfast", you actually suggested "dont skip eating". Since you know, if you skip the first meal you would skip them all

Genius advice, thanks anon

>>17290940
Prove it. Surely you could pull up something off of the archive, right?

>>17290017
The USA is a fantastic county with lots of wealth to throw around and cheap costs of living outside of those big democrat run cities.

>>17290972
I'm not a big believer in sitting under a tree for 40 days and not eating so yeah, for some people that advice might seem foolish, but not for all people.
Eat your veggies kids.

>Give me your best money saving food hacks
Hunt for free meat, grow a garden for free veggies, dig a well for free water, use solar-power and gas for energy, aquire said gas from manure from animals you also raise for even more food.

There, extra-low living costs, enjoy your disposable income as you please.

>>17289774
It's not exactly how much you eat, but what you eat. Eating the wrong foods won't fill you up and will cause you to be hungrier, which inevitably leads to overeating and weight gain. These people could eat the same amount of "stuff" but be at a much better weight if they stuck to meat, dairy, eggs, and veggies.

>>17290998
neither the fatty or the anorexic you posted could defend themselves against a wild squirrel attack

>>17290992
I've lived in California for the past 5 years and the cost of living is outrageous. I make $22 an hour and rent my own shitty little place, but have literally never gone hungry in my life. Meanwhile the KY anon makes $30 and can buy a house for $150k, but somehow people can't afford a bottle of hot sauce. It just doesn't add up.

>>17290713
>What you eat first is what reintroduces your body to fuel and wakes your metabolism.
Absolutely incorrect. Being in a fasted state just means your body is used stored energy as its fuel source. You are metabolising your energy stores. Did you seriously think that people on extended fasts just felt hungry and weak all the time? Last week I did a 3 day fast no issues and only broke it because I had stuff about to expire in the cupboards. Hunger does not keep increasing until you eat; it comes in waves that subside whether you eat or not.

>>17291024
it's less "I literally cannot afford a $4 bottle of hot sauce" and more "if I'm a stingy cunt I can spend that $4 somewhere else", usually anyway

the smart ones that do this tuck that extra money away for a rainy day or make it multiply, the dumb ones spend it on beer and smokes and skimp everywhere else in their life

>>17291018
No accounting for taste....
>>17291036
Nothing I said contradicts that. Your analogy would imply people do not breath when they sleep. The waking of the metabolism is not restarting it, it's waking it.
>3 day fast
Gotta pick up those numbers chief.

>>17290017
It is not that inconceivable, big heritage from hardworking parents, poor parenting and modern culture induce this kind of obesity, it is hardly a challenge to gain weight when you are encouraged to sit all day in a chair or sofa, have a busy working schedule and wide availability of ready to eat snacks and junk food everywhere?
You don't even need to be that rich either, you could buy bulk bags of potatoes, salt and gallons of oil and eat chips every single fucking day all day long. How long do you think would take for you to reach small ham planetoid size?

>>17291048
You implied that your body has no fuel source when in a fasting state. That is what was flagrantly false.

They all make choices about what they want to cover based on their political leanings, but I'm sorry, nothing in the MSM is "designed to incite as much hatred as possible" except for Fox. You're projecting.

>He doesn't know about state legalization

>>17291276
You know they say that all men are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Samoa Joe and you can see that statement is not true. See, normally if you go one on one with another wrestler, you got a 50/50 chance of winning. But I'm a genetic freak and I'm not normal! So you got a 25%, AT BEST, at beat me. Then you add Kurt Angle to the mix, your chances of winning drastic go down. See the 3 way, at Sacrifice, you got a 33 1/3 chance of winning, but I, I got a 66 and 2/3 chance of winning, because Kurt Angle KNOWS he can't beat me and he's not even gonna try!
So Samoa Joe, you take your 33 1/3 chance, minus my 25% chance and you got an 8 1/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice. But then you take my 75% chance of winning, if we was to go one on one, and then add 66 2/3 per cents, I got 141 2/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice. See Joe, the numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you at Sacrifice.

>>17291287
Clearly you are Joe in this situation, outmatched and outsmarted. It was fun doing this with you, but clearly the bigger man has won. And me, being the bigger man, will leave you to deal with your failure.

They literally never said that. They did report on Russia launching a massive online influence campaign during the 2016 election, which is completely true. Other than that, people like Maddow did shit on how it was kind of weird that Trump seemed to have a lot of business ties to Russia, hired a big oil mogul who wanted to make a drilling deal with Russia, and pointed out how it was really, really weird that Trump was on international television saying he trusted the word of Putin over his own CIA intelligence. But yeah, that was all framed as, "this is really weird, and maybe something to keep an eye on because no president has ever acted this way". Nobody ever claimed Russia "hacked the election".

I buy all my spices at the asian supermarket where I can get bags of 200 grams to a kilo of any spice I want for between 1 and 4 euros, then I just pour those in the glass spice containers that I got from ikea

for comparison, a small bottle with 30 grams of paprika sets me back 2.50 euros in the regular supermarket, but a bag of 200 grams is only 1.50 at the asian supermarket. I can get a kilo of the stuff for only 5 euros.

Don't get ripped off by big spice

picture of spice jars
I just label them with my dymo printer, I probably have like 20 of these by now. Holds about 120 grams or so, depending on the spice.

Bags that I don't empty in the jars in one go all go in a sealed 1L container I also got from ikea a while ago, stored in the pantry, so it doesn't stink up the place

I mean the big guys at the top. The entire system is unwinnable and it's a lie fed to us that any of us could have class mobility in the upward direction in the long game. The middle class and owners you're talking about were predicted to fall to the working class a long time ago by a smart dude named Friedrich Engels. It's inevitable and everything they say on all media sources to the contrary is to distract you.

>>17293609
I don't know why he brought up Engels, but obviously things are different than they were 50 years ago. The right has pretty much done everything possible to kill the middle class and increase the wealth gap while basically giving unbridled power to big corporations.

Fifty percent of Americans are going to have difficulty producing 400 dollars for an emergency expense. Let's say, hypothetically, every landlord in the country disappeared, the housing market settled, and the median home price became 100k instead of 300k. What makes you think that someone who can't produce 400 dollars in an emergency is going to be able to fork over the downpayment for a 100,000 purchase. Sure, they might be able to cover the mortgage, but you can't buy a home at 0% down. That's how we get crises like 2008. In order to own property, you need to be able to pay for it. A substantial number of americans are going to be forever renters, regardless of market conditions. Unless you're advocating for state ownership of all housing, which we've seen fail over and over again, private ownership/renting is the only viable solution.

State ownership fails right now because the state mediates class struggle and is controlled by the very few with the most property. State ownership succeeded when the masses take control of the State and mediate their class struggle. In other words, Banks are the principle aspect in your scenario and workers in control of the State can weild power against banks to increase home ownership. China actually did this and it didn't require outright redistribution either. Markets alone don't offer you any protection because they are entirely dictated by volatile cycles of instability that, in a system where the masses don't weild power to decide what gets made efficiently, causes crises of overproduction that never leave, only transform into other crises. I do agree markets (like the State) are merely a tool though, and the cheat that allows them to work most optimally for everyone is for the masses to directly be in control and invested. Something not possible in systems like the US, UK or Canada but currently practiced with great success in China. Until workers have actual power, everything we want to change, everything we talk about changing, is utter fantasy. But instead of dooming, we ought to work together to take that power and improve life somewhat.

>>17293609
>>17293679
>Upward mobility has and always will exist in this country.
No, it's not. You need to be in a specific education or trade to make that amount of upward mobility. Minimum wage used to be able to give you a home but now it's impossible.
>What makes you think that someone who can't produce 400 dollars in an emergency is going to be able to fork over the downpayment for a 100,000 purchase
I don't care about your hypothetical situation on how some retard who doesn't know how to handle his money, there are some people who know how to save money but shit like renting is eating up their expenses and they might be one step away from a health emergency where all of that shit doesn't matter anymore, they might as well be homeless. Having a company buying multiple real-estate, inflate the prices by 300% but the wages are shit is not an excuse for the current generation. Most young people today are frugal than their boomer parents, but they got dealt a shit hand.

>>17293960
I hope you're joking. China has got to be one of the most batshit insane housing markets on the planet right now. It's a bubble the likes of which haven't been seen since the tulip shit in the 17th century. Elderly Chinese families are bidding obscene amounts of money for cardboard cubicle houses that will fall apart in a decade. If you think that the Chinese system is something that we need to emulate, you're part of the problem

>>17293961
It's not a hypothetical situation though, it's 50% of Americans. Half the country isn't capable of producing 400 dollars in savings.

>>17293961
>minimum wage used to be able to give you a home
Very few people actually work at the federal minimum wage.

>>17293961
>Minimum wage used to be able to give white people a home
Fixed for you, and yes, because FDR created a government program that transformed the real estate market into a two-tier system that basically barred nonwhites from participating in the housing market, while shoveling billions in generously underwritten loans earmarked for white buyers, white people had a very easy time buying a home, for a time, mostly because they didn't have to compete with anyone else

>>17289764
>buy large amounts when shit is on sale
>freeze wherever possible, especially bread and meat
>be flexible with your dinner plans, consider what's on sale

>>17294076
The country was also 90% white in 1940, your narrative isn't so simple. The "competition" they would've had wasn't 40% of the country like it is now. At least back then the system worked for 90%. Now who does it help?

>>17294087
>At least back then the system worked for 90%. Now who does it help?
Me, for one. I bought a home. I'm not white. If whites are having trouble buying homes now, with banks desperate to lend money, maybe they need to work harder? Pull themselves up by their bootstraps? I'm kinda joking kinda not. Something something, equality feels like oppression, I can't remember the exact quote.

>>17294056
Alright, why do these 50% of people have to make everyone else suffer? These people will never buy a home in your scenario, why do decent homes have to be 300k+ for the other 50% who do save up more than 400 dollars???

>>17294105
Plenty of whites do fine, now you're just seeing the class distinctions playing out (it was always there). Plenty of middle class blacks need zero help to get to college or get a good job.

>>17294105
>he's proud to have worked his way up to a lifestyle that a generation ago was basically automatic

Everything is objectively worse right now financially for the average person than it used to be, and it's because Americans are indirect competition with the entire fucking globe who is happy to work here for a lower wage provided they get a green card because it's better than fucking Pakistan.
It is still better than Pakistan, but it's worse than it was

>>17294200
Was basically automatic if you were white, is what I think you meant to say. Automatic for people like me, too. Automatic "no" to the same kinds of opportunities automatically granted to others.

It will take a while to right the wrongs, whereby household wealth disparities on the order of 400% were created along racial lines. Yeah, I lucked out, but a lot of people did not. Considering the growth we saw in the 20th century was basically a one-time, never to be repeated event in world history, I think it's time we considered more active measures, such as reparations.

>>17294105
No offense bro, but most non-whites are suffering even more compared to the average white. Who do you think owns all these suburban homes and real estates?

>>17294313
Never said everything was ok, otherwise why would I be calling for reparations? What you might be picking up on with the "ok" is that, policy-wise, things are somewhat less unequal than they were. To the extent that whites feel like they've lost out in this transition, I'm not crying over that. Perhaps you think I am? What is it that you think my intentions really are?

Use the 711 7Now app to create an account with a throwaway email that connects to nothing and place an order for like 7.10 cents worth of food, and then use the code 711TREAT when prompted, knocks $7 off your bill.

You can do this forever as long as you keep making new accounts (they don't have to connect anywhere). I used to stock up on things like drinks, plates, chips, candy, etc. Just little snacky stuff.

Similarly, the Panera Bread app lets you make a new account with no serious verification, it's very easy and all new users get a free bakery item.

The herbs thing is legit though. To get fresh herbs you spend about 5 bucks for usually low quality stuff that you have too much of and throw out. If you use dried herbs exclusively then sure but youre missing out on actual cooking. Fresh stuff will make your poor food taste better.
