Money can be stressful, but nothing quite matches the all-encompassing anxiety you get when there's no money to be had. "More money, more problems" was clearly coined by a wealthy capitalist who wanted to keep the little guy down, because it doesn't hold true when you're living paycheck to paycheck with kids to feed, elderly parents to care for, and collectors calling you at all times of the day. The best way to stay sane in that soul-crushing, down-and-out cycle is by adopting a healthy sense of humor and cackling at relatable Tweets like these because sometimes you just have to laugh or else you'll go absolutely crazy.

Concert season is upon us, but getting tickets always seems like a massive headache now thanks to high ticket prices, high demand, and even higher Ticketmaster fees. Too bad our bank account isn't also high.

So is anyone actually making money on Facebook marketplace, then? Maybe we should just bring back the barter system so we all have new-to-us stuff once in a while.

Your salary, our bank account ... Inflation always seems to hit only the things we don't want it to, like our waistline.

Hidden fees are absolutely maddening, but there's a special place in hell for banks that charge ridiculous overdraft fees because you have no money.

My money was losing 5% due to inflation so I opened a savings account. Now I’m losing 4.99%

Only millionaires are truly protected from inflation. Slivers of percentages don't matter to everyone else.

If we exclude all things normal people pay money for, inflation was 0.0% MoM and YoY!!! https://t.co/M1KQAfwJuf pic.twitter.com/ni0M4wZEyF

Everyone says that inflation is cooling, but that's mostly because they ignore little tiny parts of our budget like RENT. Does someone want to tell our landlords that inflation is actually going down and they should lower our rent? Anyone? We didn't think so.

Somehow job responsibilities always increase, but the pay rarely does.
