I love my friend but this person has a serious issue with money. I used to think she was actually poor but have since found out that she is receiving approximately $2000 per month in employment and also an extra $500 from an ex every month in alimony then she receives free items from all her friends who also believe the fiction that she is poor. When you add it all up her incoming funds are approximately $3000 to $3500 per month which is double my income right now. I am wondering why she never pays for anything and never invites anyone she is always the guest no matter where she goes an no one seems to question why she does not just work a couple of extra shifts to make more money because at the moment she is earning $2000 per month by working only a half day per week. Since when is that poor? I say quit pleading poverty and start to reciprocate to your friends and relatives and work more than a half day per week.
