Sorry to derail for one minute, but I've heard some of you compare SD to Ashy Bines on this thread before. I came across this on her story and had to share it on here (not sure if there's any active threads for her at the moment).
Stuff like this shows how out of touch with reality influencers are- and it grinds my gears! The fact that she's using people not being able to afford their rent VS Ashy struggling to pay the rent of 3 buildings plus a house- shows her privilege!
She literally could have said "money problems can be relative" without rubbing it in that person's face that they are broke...
I've watched a few videos that say people with moderate-high wealth don't understand the two levels of being "poor". There's the struggling to pay bills type, and there's the type where they have no savings whatsoever. The latter are often forgotten about when wealthier people try to make something affordable because they often look only at the face value price.
For example, the Sunee app is $10/m if you pay for the full year, but most people who are broke don't have the $120 spare to pay for 12 months. It will work out to be more expensive if you get 4x 3-month subscriptions, but the "forgotten" tier of being broke can't afford to save the money.
Another example is when wealthier folk say those who are broke are clearly making their lives worse by buying coffee out instead of making it, forget that to make coffee at home requires start up costs which requires some type of savings (my plunger cost $20, and the beans are $12/m. I needed $32 to start up, which is well and truly on the low end. Plus the plunger broke so I had to buy a new one). A lot of broke folk don't have that option.
