Unless you’re super rich or one of the world’s biggest cheapskates, chances are you know what it’s like to be broke. And recently, people on Twitter decided to spill the beans and tell the internet what is the most broke they have ever been. And let’s just say that it was hilarious, but also kind of depressing.
Twitter user SheHatesJacoby decided to ask his followers to reveal stories about the most broke they have ever been — their lowest point. You know, something to make the rest of us realize that the majority of us are poor as hell.
What’s the brokest y’all have been?

@SheHatesJacoby Ate hot and spicy McDonald’s sandwiches for a couple days so I could afford to get my dog his dog food. As long as he was happy I was good.
