Slight tangent but this is the wild thing about the personal finance sleep paralysis demon that is Jackie. If she wasn’t such a compulsive spender she could really have had it all and built out a pretty decent net worth by now?!
If she had just started out with a flat or small house from that first advance, built equity and moved on up to the
forever home
quite comfortably. Sent SB to prep school with the Patreon cash. She could own multiple Bitcoins. Rinsed the rich fiancés for Chanel flap bags and new teeth and other frivolities. The possibilities were truly endless and she chose Cotswold co and a John Lewis loyalty card????? Foolish behaviour.
Absolutely agree, and what I am talking about doesn’t apply to Jack (seeing as she pleads poverty most of the time, spends Patreon and PayPal money shamelessly and desperately wants to own her own home).
However, people do have the choice to spend their money according to their own principles. There is a thread on here where posters go on and on about how the person in question shouldn’t “fritter their money away on shite for their home or on meals out, they should save for a holiday or a house”. But the thing is, not everyone views holidays or owning homes as status items. This person is very honest about being happy in their current home and never says they want to go on holiday. Why does it matter if people spend their money differently?
It is the same as shopping at different shops. Iceland may be filled with more processed food (which is not the devil’s creation) than other shops, but it serves an essential role in many locations and for many people. On the other hand, some people would rather economise in other areas of their lives so they can buy more expensive items in Sainsburys or M & S.
Obviously we are not talking about those with no disposable income here (which is an entirely different post) but I think it is just really easy to apply our own internalised ideals to what we think everyone wants to do in terms of spending, cooking, living, educating. Is home-owning the ideal? Is going on a holiday the ideal? Is owning most of JL? I don’t know.
This isn’t meant to be antagonistic, just a thought. Sorry if offence is taken, it isn’t meant like that.
in the media because of being out all day working at my job but have caught up today and LJC this patreon shite has given me a rage headache. WHY are people so stupid as to give this idiot money for the precise amount of duck all. How are they so taken in by all the wank about basic ranges when she was actively promoting spending more on del monte when she was collabing with them? Oooh Im livid 
on a lighter note I did love all the appropriate Moz lyrics earlier
