Yes. It's very expensive to be poor. Late fees, bounced check fees, checking acct fees (if you don't have direct deposit), interest on credit cards if you can't pay them off. The list is endless.

My ex was late paying his credit card one month and they raised the rates on ALL his cards to 30%. Thirty fucking percent!
