Don't hate, get money.
Anyway in this country it's a myth that you need loads of cash to have all the latest stuff. Look at me for example, blackberry £120 paid out of my student loan - does everything any other smartphone does (albeit slower), 32 inch hd tv £300 - mum got that for me for free off a phone contract she was on, xbox £80 second hand - plays the same games as a brand new £170 one, Designer clothes 3 shirts @ £75, 2 trousers @ £75, 3 jumpers @ £80 , anyone can afford all that over the course of a year or so - trick is to a) buy less (i chose to live on 3 shirts a week via twice weekly washes rather than 5 shirts) b) any clothes over £100 is just being flashy tbh as you can get great quality for under that c) know what to buy designer i.e forget about designer shoes or coats or bags as they are £200 minimum and you only really get marked quality difference between designer and high street shirts/ jumpers/trousers d) SALES!! e) seeing as you shelled out on good quality clothes there is no need to buy new ones every season, my £750 gaming pc - mum spent ages saving up for that for my birthday, who needs sky? get freeview, get friendly with your neighbour and use their wireless for free, tesco mobile (i do not understand why anyone on this planet goes on contract. top up £20 that gets tripled to £60, £5 on blackberry internet services with 1gb internet, £5 on 5000 free texts, end result £10 credit with £40 free credit, 5000 texts and 1gb internet) you may say some contracts are cheaper than that but with this you can tailor it to however much money you have each month and you don't have to pay regularly. plus if you use it all up you dont get blasted with charges.
So yeah with a bit of saving, buying a few high quality things here, a few low quality things there you can have everything you want. The only thing I truly cannot afford at all is a car (not just the car but the lessons, the insurance, the mot, the tax and all that bull****)
For the clothes, its probably going to be a lot different for girls however while I will look like a massive hypocrite for saying this, designer gear is utterly pointless on most occasions. you can look perfectly fine in cheap clothes. For casual clothing it's generally just to look flashy (hence why it looks the same as high street gear just with a logo on it) I bought designer gear because having asperger syndrome means I totally dont understand fashion at all (how on earth do u know what will suit you??) so after years of looking like a complete weirdo I thought "**** it if I buy a couple nice shirts and trousers and jumpers noone can say I look weird" and it worked lol, people always say i look nice
Sorry about the essay but my point is if youre annoyed at not having the same equipment as your richer peers (i.e a decent smartphone, a games console, a decent selection of tv programmes, decent quality clothes) then you can by doing the above. If youre annoyed at not looking as flashy as your richer peers (no flash car, not tons of random super expensive designer gear) then forget about trying to achieve that untill you get some qualifications and a good job. By then your years of being poor will cause you to look back on that time and think "what a ridiculous waste of money, you gotta be crazy if you think im doing that with my hard earned money"
