    If you are privileged hold on tight to it, only a fool would give it away.

    This chart is inaccurate when measuring how poor you are.
    For example poor measures 0, yet I'm gettin da dole in 32 counties, so I'm poor yet rich if ya know wat I means.

    The Chart is out of date.
    Remember, white straight males are responsible for all of the worlds ills.
    We get an Automatic -5000 points for being a$$holes
    Isn't that an exaggeration of what the chart is actually saying?

    I'm not sure what's more surprising, the fact that I scored -35 simply for being gay, or the fact that if I was straight I'd be considered privileged, despite growing up in a single parent household with a mother struggling to get by in a working class area of Dublin and working my ass off for pretty much everything I have. This is the single worst thing I've ever seen on the internet.

    I got 40.

    Female, white, straight, cis, european (the meh european option:pac:), able bodied, happy with face and yet....
    Apparently I'm "poor" because I earn less than 30k, I get 0 for being a student but would somehow have gotten even less (-15) when I get a job in my chosen field.
    I lose 50 points for being female and I lose 10 points for being short.
    It's a tough world.:(

    Damn being a short woman, but I still got 95.

    Am not convinced being Jewish is the advantage they claim it is though.
