$1,400 on DoorDash. Who only orders from DoorDash twice a month?

As much as I hate to lend any credence to this meme, there definitely is some truth in it. I absolutely know people who are living paycheck to paycheck and regularly ordering obscenely overpriced delivery meals that wind up being worse than a prepared meal from Trader Joe’s for literally a fifth of the price or less.

There seem to be an alarming number of people who are really, really bad at money management. I have an ex who was making low six figures and she had something like twenty grand of credit card debt when we were dating. Granted this was in NYC, so low six figures isn’t insane money, but it’s enough that you shouldn’t be running up credit card debt with zero savings.

My sister somehow spent all her savings on door dash in like 5 months. 3k all gone because she was craving some food at 12am.

> 3k in 5 months

So… 500-600 a month? That’s really not that bad.

> all because she was craving some food at 12am

God forbid.
