Would watch Fresh Prince and Family Matters and like “WOW look at that. Their house is so pristine. Everything looks new. Everyone has their own room. People sit at a dining table.”
My house was dark, smelled funny, full of random junk and we’d have mattresses on the floor to fit a large family.
All my hood friends had the same experience. I had friends whose bedroom also their living rooms.
Now I have friends who have a lot of money. 6 figure incomes and everything. Their house is slightly better looking, but that’s about it. Still full of stuff. Messy if you surprise them on a off day.
Average American is no longer the standard for quality living.
Grew up in the ghetto of the US.
