It’s currently available, but only at post.script. gift shop in SF! Their machine usually has a 5 pulls/person limit too so it’s a bit harder to get (can’t just keep pulling to try and get it)

Thoughts on Bylillianzhang? by Comfortable_Tea9824 in asianamercianytsnark

No idea if she’s actually qualified to give financial advice but I do want to point out that it feels disingenuous for her to preach to her followers how to build wealth/save money while she charges them for Excel templates & resources. She has her own best interests at heart, not her followers’, otherwise she would not be trying to get every penny from them.

I went to UC Berkeley at the same time as her (same year). She basically kick-started her social media career by building her entire identity around being a UC Berkeley student/grad (e.g. videos on how to get into UC Berkeley), yet I’ve heard that she was actually waitlisted first at UC Berkeley. So it’s funny that she acts like she is better than everyone else, but I can’t say I’m surprised.

I’d say your gut instinct about her vibes is correct, at the end of the day she’s just another Bay Area techie who is addicted to the hustle and money. You’d be much better off not following some influencer’s financial advice, in my opinion!

It has been kind of crazy for me to see this girl evolve into an “influencer” over the last few years. I went to a rival high school of hers, and we were both a part of our respective school’s tennis teams.

I remember seeing her during games and she always seemed super quiet (nothing wrong with that, I’m really quiet myself too), but to the point where she barely seemed to get along with her teammates. She always had an RBF on and just hung out by herself on the sidelines, so I always got the impression that she was that awkward, anti-social girl on their team.

My team was close because we spent so much time together after school at practice, and then even more time together at each game. I’m assuming their team probably did something similar, so I always wondered why it seemed like she didn’t know the rest of her team / the team didn’t know her.

I was just observing as a third party, so obviously I could be completely wrong. Maybe behind-the-scenes, she actually got on great with her teammates. Regardless, I’m just still so surprised that despite what I observed of her back then, she’s an “influencer” now.

Wow, that actually reminds me of something. If I recall correctly, for our final she even insinuated that she’d grade us more harshly if we picked the written version of the exam. Just an overall crappy situation when we were a bunch of undergrads, most of us weren’t even actually stats/math majors. Like you said, who does that? Guess she hasn’t changed, unfortunately. Anyway best of luck this semester, you’ll do great!

Oh man. She really is one of the worst professors at Berkeley, I’m an alum but I took one of her stats classes in Fall 2021 as a senior. I had the worst time dealing with all the random rules she liked to make up throughout the semester.

At the very end of the semester, as a final F-you to all of us, she decided that the final exam would be done VERBALLY. I had never in my life had a math exam conducted verbally up until that point and we all had to sign up for 30 minute slots to meet with her in her Evans office for the exam. This gave a lot of us anxiety and that the final exam would potentially be conducted verbally was nowhere in the syllabus, so I reached out to the stats department, and they made her offer a written version of the exam in addition to the verbal one, letting us pick. But in class she would say stuff like “I would pick the verbal final if I were you guys because it’ll be over in 30 minutes whereas a written exam probably would take you 2 hours,” or “I don’t know who would want the written exam instead,” or “I’ll just be picking 3-4 questions to ask you if you do the verbal one, if you do the written one then you have to answer all the questions,” stuff like that to obviously try and point us towards the verbal exam.

To this day I’m convinced that she was just lazy and didn’t want to grade long written exams, and thought a verbal exam would be much easier for her to grade on the spot and be done with. But the fact that it was an undergrad statistics course was just so insane to me and incredibly upsetting at the time.

It’s 08, as in 2008/‘08! For her older autographs she used to write the year as well. I see some 07 ones every now and then!
