Which is probably not far from true considering they are feeding 4 and probably buying crazy poo poo at the grocery store.

That NFTs got taken seriously enough for MSM to take them seriously for any length of time is like the most severe indictment possible of our stupid, stupid world and the drooling, stumbling troglodytes that fill it.

they're paying for two elite private school educations, and putting the maximum amount of money into their retirement accounts and their company stock-buying program. and even after all that, he's not actually worried that her spending thousands of dollars at the mall is gonna put them in the red or anything. he's just complaining that her spending is reducing how much they can put into their investment accounts

Money from what social media stuff she does aside, I feel like she shot her other videos from what I assume was her parents' house, and I got the impression her family is rich.

Not that this is an excuse; if anything it's the opposite. I have a strong hunch that younger people born into wealthy families from gen Z/younger millennials might be one of the worst demographics, even exceeding rich boomers. I think their brains will be broken by being born into immense privilege at a time of immense inequality, especially related to the rest of their age cohort.

Basically, the elites from Gen Z are going to be a bunch of turbo-sickos.

i have 2 young kids and even if i shopped at the upscale grocery store that's more expensive than whole foods and bought everything organic, grass fed and free range meat, fair trade and brand name i dont think i could spend more then $1000 a month, maybe 1500 when they get to be ravenous teenagers

What the gently caress? Everyone knows that it's vitally important to mix powdered diamonds into childrens' meals so they can properly digest their food.

You're effectively starving those poor children, and I hope someone reports you to CPS!

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

she's very low on the to-be-guillotined list if she even appears at all. but I'm gonna stake out the hot take that anyone who buys a two-million-dollar anything, especially a drat apartment, is unironically hosed up, probably due to chronic overexposure to capitalism

2 million really isn’t that much for decent Manhattan real estate. as far as things to spend millions on, somewhere to live in a place you like is one of the few I can understand even if I’m extremely envious. like if I won the lottery my first purchase is absolutely gonna be a nice house/apartment somewhere in downtown Philadelphia
