    She already made a million. Give her two more years and she’ll make more than an average scientist in their whole career. Then she can still get a PhD.

      As long as she’s careful with it, she’ll be fine. A lot of people who have sudden income windfalls don’t know how to be smart with it and end up losing everything, but as she’s pursued higher education, she’s a lot more likely to be financially literate than someone who regularly plays the lottery.

      If she invests wisely, she could be set for life.

        Interesting. Didn’t know you knew her so well. Are you her best friend? Close family? Or how do you get so much insight into her psyche?

        Nostradamus over here, lol! 🔮

        What will she be doing 2 months from now? Rolling in the $ while you get mad that someone figured out a way to make an easier living?
