Growing up middle class In FLOPTROPICA

Transcript

This is my story and what it was like living middle class in Floptropica. So for some context, we weren't poor, but we weren't rich. My dad made around $52 million per hour and my mom made around $26 million per hour. Like rich, you weren't poor, we were like dead middle. For context, this is what my house look like before y'all hit anything. I know it's small. Don't even try to edit. Just keep the comments going. Dead living in cupcakes. Shout out to my cupcakes and baddies. I didn't fight in the first half of the Bussy War, but I did fight in the second war. So I am a Bussy War veteran. Growing up not the richest people, we weren't hating on me, but it's like, damn girl. Let me know what it was like for y'all in Floptropica.
