Do you think you are required to be poor to be punk? Do you have to be broke to really have some rock and roll in your life?

Is this how we would like it to be or how it is?
I don't think so...but when you ARE broke it's nice to think you have SOMETHING of value.
Envy is very punk rock.
Well, you aren't broke and you are punk rock in my book. It's about culture, who you are.. not the size of your bank account.
You are successful and that rocks.. even in the punk way!

I don't think you necessarily have to be dirt ass poor *but it helps.LOL* but I think you do have to have had a life of struggle and hardship to be able to REALLY relate to that lifestyle.

So long as you have to tip really big not to get thrown out of nice places, you are still punk rock.
Technically wouldn't that apply to just about anything though? Plus many use the "life of struggle and hardship" as an excuse to do some pretty fucked up things...like members of street gangs. Lord knows they love to cache' on their hard knock life while in court.Originally Posted by uglyshyla
I have a mohawk and I'm broke all the time. Doesn't make me feel punk tho. But people usually think I'm a punk. *shrug*
