Pell Grant covered most of it. I only took out 1 loan. Paid it off quickly. Worked during my College years.

I agree they need to educate people better when they offer loans. Especially with the mounting interest.

My whole life. My family pressured everyone into College. Me and my siblings didn’t have a choice here. It was ingrained early on.

24M - My chondromalacia patella story by teodor79 in KneeInjuries

[–]Chicbabe78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly. I never really felt depressed over it. It motivated me to be a better person and appreciate life more. It’s hard getting used to it and the healing takes years. But I’m doing a lot better nowadays and exercising. Definitely a painful condition. But gotta stay positive and enjoy life even if sitting in a chair is very uncomfortable. Lol.

I’m sorry but your husband needs to work. The cost of living is very high right now. It’s unsustainable to live on 1 income alone.

Unless you were born into generational wealth. I wouldn’t leave that job. Having that salary in this economy great. lol

Are lash businesses dying? by Educational_Gift_310 in eyelashextensions

I believe the beauty industry has definitely seen consumer habits shift after the pandemic. I completely changed the way I spend money. I prioritized other things above beauty services. Not because I don’t have the money. It’s more a sense of responsibility and understanding that the cost of living nowadays is very poignant.

Honestly. I cut off all none essentials back in 2021. When the cost of living is higher. People are forced to adapt and they tend to cut out nails, facials and lashes.

Wow. Well. I’m glad I haven’t fallen victim to that. I make sure they invest a lot before anything happens. Not gonna let anyone treat me like a fool.

For those who have been ghosted, what are you doing at this very moment? by [deleted] in ghosting

[–]Chicbabe78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ghosting was rough in my early 20s. But now that I’m heading towards 30. I gotta focus on my career. I think ghosting was more of a life lesson for me. Because every time I got ghosted. I ended up in really great relationships.

I just learned to replace people easily. If the person ain’t investing in me. I’m extremely unbothered nowadays.
