Good for Kanye choosing not to be a slave.

hey does anyone have a link to that story in the WSJ a few years ago about how hard it is to make ends meet when you’re only making $500k? It had like four different families, like the married couple making $625k was getting clobbered by their four kids’ private school tuition etc.
Not the WSJ, but similar.
yeah that’s good but I specifically want that one article from WSJ, they had those awful woodcut illustrations of the poor mom making $290k and trying to feed her kid.
It’s like the article no longer exists! Loads of references to it but can’t find the actual article itself. Here’s the infographic from it, I think.
Edit: I think this is the original article, but it’s behind a paywall for me.
There’s reference to the WSJ article and infographic here:

Whole thing isn’t bad, but Michael Che’s part starting around 2:18 is absolutely hilarious.
That’s incredible. I hope the whole thing becomes available.

WSJ has so many articles that are basically “Look how hard it is to get by on a mere $350k” that I gave up googling, nicely done finding that picture.
Gets me right in the feels every time.
Asian lawyer lady is PISSED about her taxes and you are in trouble. I’m ready to take my punishment mistress.
Poor Laura Dern just couldn’t hold on to her man like her brunette twin. Maybe she should have cranked out a couple more babies. Also hitch your wagon to a beta nerd and not a crazy Irishman next time. That poor sweet sad ginger child is going to have to somehow survive on $260k. It’s like coat of many colors come to life. Is there a gofundme I can contribute to?
And of course the lucky ducky black retired family gets off easy under Obama. Figures!
I’m 95% sure they deliberately patterned their graphic after this.
Just reading The headline jazzes me up.
It seems like the tablet could probably replicate the trackball, since it’s touch screen.
The pro trick in the button version of Track and Field was using a pencil as a ‘see saw’ between the buttons, but it wasn’t fun.

I don’t remember any of those.
Oh, and there were ‘pros’ at the local Putt-Putt playing Track and Field who had the sprint times at like 0.04…lol. They would basically flip the clock at 1 minute to do that, by running as slow as possible.
What is this monstrosity?
Goat arcade game - cross between Galaga and Tempest. You started at Pluto and each level you moved to a new inner planet. It had amazing stereo sound so you’d get kind of hypnotized and get into flow state by the time you got to Mars - which is I think as far as I ever got.
Also one that you need a really well tuned joystick that took a lot of absue - since you’re basically directing it around a circle (but it didn’t have a paddle like Tempest). So not sure how well it would work in one of those home game combo systems.
I’ve almost pulled the trigger a standup Gyruss game for like $2k on ebay while drunk a couple times. Woke up like - WHEW.
Don’t recognize this one.
Marble Madness - hardest game ever.
