Keep your broke friends in mind at least once a month.

It's very hard to keep up, interact with, or even spend time with friends when you're broke, and it can really add to poverty induced depression when one's friends are constantly enjoying new things/games etc and you are left out because you can't afford them.

It's even more depressing when you're left out for months.

It's often why poor folks don't make friends outside their income bracket. We can't afford y'all's friendship.

I was asked by a 20 year younger friend how my internet was back then. I needed a moment but then I told her the story of an IRC channel and how we made the day for a young girl who happened to be on our IRC channel. Because this is what my internet was like back then and I wish sometimes it still was like this. Let me tell the story:

I was 25, the channel members were like 20 to 30 years old. Somehow this young girl found her way to us. She was 14 when she joined the channel. >>

We're at 928.930! That's incredible!!
