Do you want to avoid being poor? Finish high school, get a job, and don't have children before you are married. Marriage does wonders for your financial prospects.
Very true. Most of the successful people in our country did not start off that way. They went to school graduated made good financial decisions and worked hard.

Expect to have a minimum wage job all your life and you are well along the way to meet your expectations
