Nearly 40 million families, or 29% of the population, are defined as ALICE, which stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed.

I have a job. For years I’ve been trying to save up for an air conditioner. “Maybe I’ll finally have enough saved up by this summer. No probably by winter I’ll be able to afford one.” is what I’m telling myself now and what I’ve been telling myself for years.

anyway, last summer All I could do exhausted after work everyday was lay here and sweat on a towel and drink water.

pretty sure I did that the summer before also.

Can you buy it on something like Affirm?
