She basically had wrap around care incl dinner for them when she worked from home. The boy eventually walked home but she still got the daughter with a childminder who also fed them. So they'd get collected and eat breakfast with the minder then come back after dinner. Wild

Her kids are 10 and 12/13, so nursery fees aren’t really relevant to her debt now so I don’t know why she’s still harping on about it

It’s for engagement, and then generates income .
The poster above is correct that she was using childminders whilst working from home or her rented office space when having no work even during covid times and when out of work . She just wastes money

If anyone recalls this habit from before she is back creating random accounts , this time one on TikTok just for product reviews . They never amount to much and let’s face it even though she has a number of followers already who really wants a dedicated TikTok shop review account and how does that translate when she is on lives

Latest TikTok is a double whammy - tagging Now TV to try and get a freebie whilst also humble bragging about never watching tv 😭 Yasmine basically confirming she spends all evening scrolling TikTok and the dating apps, cos I highly doubt she’s picking up a book

I wonder whose subscriptions of Netflix and Disney Plus she has considering she has only admitted to spotify, but i think you are right she is angling for a free nowtv. There is no way with her kids at their age they dont watch live tv and she never had a licence either

Must be too busy with her new social media to provide her half monthly budget update video . Have been expecting her to have increased her anticipated income this month .
 
I’m sick and tired of creators like Yasmine giving ADHDers a bad rep. Not all of us plunge ourselves into debt the way she does!

People like her who spend their working hours not actually working just ruin it for everyone else. They tend to be the reason why neurodiverse employees may find it difficult having their workplace adjustments approved 🙄

She goes on like having adhd should mean her debt shouldn’t stand, like she should be let of because she’s neurodiverse. Sorry Yasmin but it doesn’t work like that. ADHD or not (I have adhd and have managed to always keep myself out of debt) it’s not an excuse to get into 50k worth of debt

The thing is too people could wipe her debt (again) she’d still be in debt a year later as she takes no accountability in her stupid spending or sees herself as the problem!!

Saw a video by another creator who suggested the reason she didn’t do the paperwork for her son’s school places on time was because of her ADHD, and he missed out on their first choice as a result. And there’s no appeal allowances for neurodiversity reasons.

While I don’t disagree that there are obstacles faced by neurodiverse people, and it can be a lot harder to complete tasks that others take for granted, I don’t like this seemingly new trend for some people of never having to take accountability for anything because of it. Because when does it end? If you can blame everything on ADHD then you never have to admit to any mistakes ever again. It undermines the actual difficulties neurodiversity causes.

Also, if you know you have ADHD and are conscious you have a child’s school placement to confirm, wouldn’t you try to enlist help from a grandparent/sibling/friend to help you?

My credit card balance, which I was capable of paying off in full, doubled due to late fees & interest thanks to my ADHD-related forgetfulness. It's the first time I've ever missed bill payment(s), and I can't understand why I just didn't pay it straight away.

Did I try to avoid accountability and beg to have the late fees & interest wiped? Nope! I paid the balance in full & learned a valuable lesson. Obviously if the balance was unaffordable for me to clear in one go, I would've reached out to my credit card provider and asked to set up a payment plan. If only I had the audacity to cite my ADHD as the cause of many problems in my life 🙄

Despite my ADHD, I'm a sucker for many admin-related tasks. Just before Christmas I completed my niece's primary school application form on behalf of my brother & his wife. I'm not being funny, but school admission forms are incredibly straightforward and only take like 10 mins to complete!

I think this is what it comes down to, it’s really crappy that having ADHD/being neurodiverse might mean you sometimes miss deadlines or struggle to complete tasks, but you need to put things in place to combat that, and take accountability if it fails. It’s not fair that others don’t have those same struggles, but it doesn’t take away the reality of the situation. ‘I can’t help it, it’s my ADHD’ helps nobody and only hurts yourself in the long run.

Watching her debt story videos I feel like I might just be the anti christ tbh, because I’m judging all of them? I know financial literacy (and even literacy itself!) is poor in this country, but we all know that owing someone money isn’t gr8 right? And know that owing banks money means you’ve got to pay for the pleasure? Like there’s a difference between not optimising your cash holdings by investing and…… narrowly avoiding bankruptcy for the second time by adding your £52k unsecured consumer debt to your ever growing mortgage?

I came here to say that same. I can’t see the point in these debt stories other than to highlight she’s not the only one irresponsibly spending money? The latest one ‘the system is designed to trap you’ well it’s not tho is it. If you’ve borrowed money you’ve reaped the rewards of that system yet now you can’t pay it back the system has trapped you? Maternity pay isn’t great no, but you’ve have 9 months to save and prepare. If you couldn’t afford a bigger car you should have waited until you could. I don’t get the point of the stories

Yes!! And if anything, it demonises debt which is against them and their interests? Planned and affordable borrowing is great, very few people can buy a property cash, so a mortgage is a life changingly gr8 line of credit. Using credit cards can be great for section 7 protections, or if you use the deals spreading the cost of big ticket items. My elderly in laws lease their car and love the flexibility/reassurance it gives them. Lots of good things can come from borrowing money sensibly, just none of these lot seem to do that?! And instead of admitting they ducked up it has to be a conspiracy theory of big bank™️. Lenders are SO regulated (which is why she can’t wiggle out of any of this debt!) you don’t get duped into maintaining a 5 figure Amex bill for months/years on end, you have to choose that lifestyle for urself?!

But lbr no one needs a bigger car for a baby? This is being easily influenced and playing house. The fact they’re in sizeable negative equity already I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a Land Rover.

Unless the pregnancy is unplanned you also should be planning further in advance . She doesn’t qualify the family situation of the person ie is it the first child and why was a bigger car required .
