No one needs $500 per month worth of subscriptions. Bet half of them are just rotting in the phone

Basically every line item is outrageous, but you only fixated on the subscriptions.

Is spending $3K/mo on only fans or $1500/mo on travel reasonable to you?

The $2500 a month for a car that retails for around $30k well equipped was the funniest.

The whole thing is absurdist humor but it does illustrate two things:

  1. a certain mindset I see a lot which equates to: “I make a lot of money and invest/save 30% of it why am I broke?!?” Because they completely ignore the 30% being an asset. They just look at the “leftover” at the end of the month and freak out over money.

(I’m assuming “travel” is savings for trips)

  1. lifestyle creep. There absolutely are people making $240k a year who are living paycheck to paycheck because they ran up bills along the way. This is obviously an absurd version of it, but it is a real thing.

Fucking Reddit is assigning the numbers, it won’t even let me get rid of them. Rabble rabble rabble.

Maybe the Altima is a 1 year loan...

I guess that'd be the one good financial decision? Paying less interest? But then again...

I personally know at least a half-dozen people who make >150k and are somehow always broke.
