We were so poor my dad would give me a penny not to eat supper.
I'd put it under my pillow and while I was sleeping, he would come in and take it. In the morning, he would holler at me for losing the penny.
Alright, listen up, buttercup. This joke is about a family that's so broke, they make the Beverly Hillbillies look like Jeff Bezos. The dad is giving his kid a penny so he won't eat dinner and then steals the penny back. And this guy yells at the kid for losing it. Do you get it now? Probably not, you are not very bright.
