    Lol out to dinner… I didn’t do that for at least 10 years after I got my first job. That’s something wealthy people do 3-4 times a week, though.

    This over privileged cunt thinking most of us aren’t already NOT doing that shit already just to survive.

    Eat the rich.

      I wish she had gone on a show where the interviewer asked her that. “Given your failure to raise an even somewhat decent human being, why should anyone take your advice on parenthood?”

        American culture dictates that the parent with the most downstream revenue in the family tree is the one with the secret to being awesome.

    Being self-centered to this degree is a pathology. Being that rich literally damages your mind.

      “I became rich, so everyone else can do it to. They’re just too lazy.”

      Lady, people aren’t poor because they go out to eat and go to the movies. 1 trip to the hospital costs more than an entire year of that shit.

      I loathe the folks that are vastly financially successful and think that same path is possible for everyone. As if the opportunities you’re born into and luck aren’t very large factors… Also this bitch raised a monster.

        So many people my age or slightly older have no clue how much things have changed for people entering adulthood in thst past 20 to 30 years.

        We could go to university and pay for it by ourselves with a part time job and maybe max out a GSL at $2500/year for four years.

        And that’s not all. They didn’t have all the bullshit they do today where you can’t (easily) declare financial independence until 25.

        Once I was financially independent I got Pell grants and lots more work study. I ended up not using the work study for my senior year because I was paid more for an internship and they asked me to keep working through the school year.

        I graduated with a whopping $10k or so in loans and paid $108/mo for 10 years. My interest rate was quite high at 9%. My starting salary was out of school was about $28k (1986). That works out to about $80k today.
