For some people MS is not a means to fly first class to Hawaii, but a means of being able to make it through Kollel with rent paid and bread on the table, or -- for others -- to buy one new piece of clothing for each of their children for Yom Tov....
This probably belongs In js but if you rely on ms for life essentials you deserve whatever comes to you. Get a job that pays more than killed or at least a rich father in law with one.
1. I work a salary job and several small side jobs to provide for my family and also consider MS to be additional side income. I am however aware that there are many individuals on here each with their own circumstances.
2. "Get a job that pays more" is fantastic advise to everyone and many people would do well to do so, but again, not everyone is in circumstances that will allow them to simply dance into a job that gives the salary they dream of.
There are many honest hard working people who do the best they can to provide for their families under the circumstances, but it's not always so simple.

(I have never gone on a tangent like this here before IINM and it's not something I intend to make a habit of, Im not looking to start a feud or a huge OT, but I was significantly disturbed by what seemed to me to be flippant disregard for the honest efforts of many hard working people, and wanted to point it out).
