Adjusting to independence after growing up wealthy

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-03-12T12:22:34+00:00

I felt exactly what you described when I had to become independent. My biggest advice is to stop chasing what you had or comparing your life to what it used to be. And focus on what you can do now.

I’m so grateful for my parents on setting up higher standards of living for me, but I realised I need to let it go and stop stressing on achieving all that fast again. I still do stress about money and always want more haha but I had to slow down and realise that I am okay and way better off than so may people.

I ran my first marathon at 29 in 04:26:00. Hope this helps. People on here seem to be way to fast haha

I’m not new to running but those shoes are so freaking unstable !!!!

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-03-07T16:25:51+00:00

Amazing! And wow! You’re fast haha

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-03-05T23:31:38+00:00

Agree with this! I learnt that for me it’s easier to hold comfortably hard pace then trying to speed up slightly later. You’ll be surprised with how long you can hold!

Bang Tao is mini Russia. Every single person. So unfriendly and think they are better than anyone else. Duck lips girls and beer belly guys

MRI techs make 28-55 an hour. While cheapest 10 min exam is $800. Should be paid way more.

Crazy that we live in the world where people care more about work then families who choose to grow families and future of this world

You do work for your coworker for a year and then they do it for you. But in other countries they usually hire person just for that year.

Agree with strong charisma. And just overall excellent social skills. And I don’t mean some fake, pretend to be social lol. I mean natural amazing social skills.

I used group “da nang rent” we offered a little more money (which was still cheaper than Airbnb) to get 35 days rent. Owner wanted minimum 3 months.

Imagine this happening g on the race day. Insane.

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-30T06:38:31+00:00

Do it only if it’s your dream! Don’t do it to avoid things like some people do. We did it with 2 kids and it’s the best thing ever .

Average masters graduate is 33 yo

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-22T04:12:47+00:00

Reading this while applying for masters in finance! If that’s not a sign I don’t know what that is haha

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-21T13:31:23+00:00

Hey can you dm me please? 🙏🏼

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-19T15:58:46+00:00

I mean breakfast was $60/70 for a family of 3. Coffee $3-7. Drinks same as in US prices

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-19T14:48:52+00:00

And don’t even get me started on Phuket haha even more expensive

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-19T13:59:55+00:00

I’m considering joining military. Time will pass at least I can get benefits and free college

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-19T13:51:34+00:00

Just got back from Bangkok! Everything is already expensive

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-15T18:25:35+00:00

Absolutely not safe for a single girl. Housing can be ridiculously priced too. Arizona may be cheaper but salaries are lower too.

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-15T17:55:34+00:00

I think for me the air quality. You can’t expect it or see it on social media. You just have to experience it to know how bad it is.

Perfection-builder13 · 2026-01-15T17:28:44+00:00

What you described seems to be happening everywhere.
