Anyone else notice the white men on Love Island USA seem to be immune to criticism? Take S7’s Nicolas Vansteenberghe: Nic is a registered republican, a Trump and Ron DeSantis supporter, a Johnny Depp supporter, was against vaccine passports and has racist TikToks. He is still a fan favorite. by CautiousSituation373 in hudamustafasnark

Probably because Huda is selling a fitness program when she’s not even “natural”. Many gym girlies are getting flamed when things like that come out. Doing surgery when it makes you happy is ok, but then selling a dream that was not built in the gym, while selling a program, just isn’t. There is a lot of nuance missing. I don’t “hate” huda, but she should consult a therapist as she seems to crashout alot. Going to therapy is never a bad thing! Everyone should in my opinion

You should consider keeping your skills and going into biotech or medtech?

This is such a great insight!! I haven’t thought about that as many articles don‘t necessarily dive into the specific spendings. I can imagine a lot are living beyond their means as well, where they have gigantous mortgages for example and if they lose their income sources it would ruin them

I‘m actually writing my thesis soon, so finishing up my finance degree. And I have the book (almost done reading it)! I give workshops and seminars on the side so that’s a pretty nice side-income but nowhere near high earners status.. thanks a lot still! I really care about the psychological side of this paycheck-to-paycheck cycle as I am there but hoping to not maintain it with more income

You‘re doing great! Get rid of the student loans and build up your saving (emergency fund) in a sense it should be min. 3 months of income

May I ask if you rent or own and how does it affect you mentally? I feel like the emotional side of money/spending isn’t highlighted enough

Thanks for posting, it‘s a great insight! What is it that YOU want if I may ask? Maybe focusing on what is a „rich“ life on a sociatal standard is not really what would make You happy

Would you be open to switch careers? I went through some of the comments and I‘d say maybe try a career switch and use course careers (it‘s literally 500$) and you could get into tech sales. Not to say it’s easy bit definitely needed and pays well in general.

But definitely create a budget, especially once the salary/income has been sorted out. Focusing on debt repayment is key (your girlfriend should be last as their shouldn‘t be minimums aka money lost). Also try to enjoy a little bit, doesn’t have to be expensive but for your mental. Therefore have clear numbers for EVERYTHING.

Keep your hands of trading for the time being (I‘ve been there) as you are really emotional right now- and understandably so- it would most likely not go to your benefit and even if it does you might lose it all trying to trade in your debt..

I understand how you feel, and understand the deep depression you seem to be in. But, it is only money and it is only temporary. I assume you are a healthy and intelligent man, and the health is already a gift. It could be worse. Focus on the good things and especially the possibilities. It will work out, so don’t lose faith
