Money Financhu Crisis / Chris sells his stuff megathread

[Trilby]

I imagine it’d just lead to special pleading like “M’yeah, that’s sad but me and my mom have got it TOUGH!”.

Surprised they haven't been signed up to a food bank at this point.

Oh no! Chris might have to open a can!

Lazy cocksucker.

Sad he doesn't know how to stretch the budget like that.

Lets see how much money his cwcprotect squad gives him.

I wish they wouldn't.

 

[awoo]

Lots of people work jobs and still live off of canned food and junk food. They're much more deserving of any donation money.

Barb and Chris aren't intelligent and doing actual research into ways to help their situation would involve effort, responsibility, and forward thinking, things the Chandlers are incapable of doing. I doubt Chris even knows what a food bank is to begin with.

Someone should get a list of foodbanks in the area and send them to Barb and Chris. I've had to live off of food banks a few times in my life, no shame in it.

They'll either make a scene at the food bank, get kicked out, and give us something to talk about, or Chris and Barb actually behave for once, start regularly seeing people who aren't each other, and maybe get some information about programs that could help them so they'll beg less. So I see that as a win-win scenario.

Chris and Barb begging less would result in less weens thinking they can "Troll Chris-Chan" by sending him 20 Dollars in a pickle jar or something.

(Of course there's a chance they'd ignore the food banks entirely because Chris can't buy legos with Food Bank food and Barb making some excuse about being too old to stand in line)

Sad he doesn't know how to stretch the budget like that.

He does, his thanksgiving dinner video showed him cooking packaged meat.

He's playing it up to convince people to give him money.

There are a shit ton of food banks near him and I'm sure Barb could get Meals on Wheels. Since he's banned from Walmarts he's paying the higher Food Lion prices on stuff.

 

[Rogowski]

Does Chris and Barb get food stamps? TBH I kinda always assumed they did because poor white trash on disability.

Not as far as anyone's aware. The household's only income sources are Barb's pension, her Social Security, Chris' SSDI, and increasingly, ween bux.
Also, not that this is conclusive, but Barb always struck me as the type with too much lower-middle-class status anxiety to sign up for food stamps or anything else that's explicitly "for poors".

I guess they don't have an ALDI or Save-A-Lot nearby. They're already starting to open Lidl stores in Virginia too.

There is an Aldi, but its a bit of a drive. Sad too, Aldi has nice stuff at a decent price.

Why does this saga remind me of a certain tomgirls' saga from six years ago?

Food Lion isn't even any more expensive than WalMart if you put any forethought into your grocery shopping, which we know Chris doesn't do. I imagine him and Barb probably eat the same things and don't want to deviate from it even if there are just as good alternatives. Like pork is crazy cheap and periodically they'll have preseasoned meats out. If he's struggling that much for food money canned or frozen vegetables is a budget friendly alternative. Or a bag or potatoes. But you know, they probably have the taste variety of a toddler.

 

[Hollywood Hulk Hogan]

He could always chase squirrels around his yard with his baseball bat to try and get some fresh meat

 

[PT 404]

He has a dead cat he could eat.

I heard a t-square is really good for squirrel hunting. @Alec Benson Leary

It's not for hunting so much as for finishing fights the squirrels start.

Why does Chris bitch about money so much? Isn't he making hundreds off a patreon the same as every other jobless asshole who whines about being the correct gender identity on twitter? In my day he didn't whine about being poor nearly this much and that was when he had zero dollars coming from the internet.

I just noticed. This time it isn't it, is even Chris's subconscious trying to call him an idiot now?

"cwcville shopping donation"

Why should I trust anything with cwcville?

What do they even cook? That kitchen doesn't look suitable for proper meal prep. He brags about making really simple dishes, so I can't imagine he's marinating chicken with a side of starch and a side of veg.
When that epik wEEn gave him a traceable gift card, it looked like what little food he bought was fast food and sandwiches.
