this video showed up on my YouTube recommended it and I clicked it purely because I thought of DJ Sezthot
The video explores the narcissists' relationship with money and other people's money and the total hypocrisy. "What's mine is mine, and what's yours is also mine." It's really complex and i enjoyed learning about this aspect of narcissism. Judging others for spending money but they spend frivolously. Offering to be generous then complaining about how much of an inconvenience it is, or using that "generosity" to control others. Showing random asks of generosity to gain points with everyone but it's not their money or they might be using someone else's. (sponsored boat anyone?) It's about control and about projection. Anyway, I'm no expert, but just very interested in learning this and couldn't help but think of Sarah. I've always thought she was financially abusive but didn't have words to explain why I thought that.
ALSO, Sarah taking every opportunity to check up on Kurt is out of hand these days. I want him to be free of this relationship so badly (partially bc then I won't feel bad for snarking on him lol), but Sarah's grip on him insane. I hope, I hope, I HOPE he has separate accounts and minimal debt, and all his early work for her brand is time logged. I feel like Kurt doesn't have access to Sarah's money, but she might to his. Or if she pays a larger percentage of bills, she might lord that over him as his "sugar momma." This could also be why him moving on to non-Sarah-related projects is making her stalk him during business hours. If anyone has insight into financial abuse that might apply to Sarah's situation, I'd love to hear about it. I thought she was just a controlling tightass. I didn't realize the concept is pretty complex.
