These TV Characters Are Way Too Poor To Afford Their Lavish Lifestyles

Lorelai Gilmore – Gilmore Girls

The early seasons of Gilmore Girls focused a lot around Lorelai’s resistance to borrow money from her rich parents. Writers made a point of often talking about their financial hardships, which we loved. There’s nothing better than seeing a single TV mom better themselves and work hard for their kids. It all comes up trumps for the Gilmore’s in the end, but when Lorelai is working at the inn and Rory is in school at the peak of their financial hardships, they somehow still manage to eat out every night and get coffee every hour, coming in at around $200 a day.
