Jacinda Arden quitting her job by saying that she “doesn’t have enough in the tank” is a gentle reminder that no job, not even being prime minister, is worth losing all of you.

No one’s ready to talk about how having $ makes the rich more productive. Car broke down? Fixed. laptop broke? A new one arrives today. Want to eat healthier? Order groceries or hire a chef. Missed your flight? Just buy a ticket for the next one. Being poor robs your time.

No one talks about how getting richer makes life safer as a young woman. Taking an Uber instead of a bus at night bcus you can afford it is a game changer. I was in a unsafe area & uber couldn’t find me a driver quickly. I ordered a lux uber & it arrived in 2 minutes.

No one talks this with salary transparency: the feeling of defeat when you truly realise how much money is out there & how much you’ve been missing out on. I still remember when I first heard of someone my age making 4x more than me in a 9-5 job.

Wealth is almost never fancy cars, mansions or big boats. Real wealth is;.A hair appt at 10am on a Thursday without asking for permission. Pilates mid day because nobody else is there. Extending your weekend trip until Monday without requesting approval.

I don’t know why people are shocked that Gen Z don’t enjoy work . Back in the day work was to let you buy a home, travel and set up a few nice things for yourself. Would you feel the same way about work if it lead to none of the above?.

Controversial opinion but I hate the trope that men are worried about how woman “will take half of everything” in a divorce. An partner who stays at home absolutely deserves a cut of what you’ve built together. You wouldn’t have the 6 fig, 60hr job without their support.

Being able to have “taxi money” at all times makes life so much mobile. I always feel comfortable enough to know I’m able to afford to leave, at any time, in any location. That to me is priceless.

Unethical money tip of the week;. If you accidentally get transferred $11m from crypto,com like that Australian lady, don’t spend the money like she did. Instead put it in a high yield savings account & keep the interest when the courts eventually ask you to return the cash.

Influencers/Celebs who promote a highly speculative investment to their followers, do not care about their followers. Vulnerable population are more likely to take up these investments and unfairly end up losing even more.

“Why do you talk so openly about money” because it affects literally every aspect of our lives? Having no financial stress impacts your access to healthcare & health outcomes, your relationships, your stress, your education, your career? Why wouldn’t we want to talk about it?.

There is beauty in salary transparency, it allows us to know what to ask for & what to expect. It doesn’t come without the uncomfortable feeling of comparing our financial journey with others. It’s so important to remember that we’re only in competition with ourselves.

If I ever had a daughter I would tell her to not even think about getting married unless she had $5k stashed somewhere with just her name on it. We’ve worked with too many women who’ve stayed in bad marriages because they had no financial leg to stand on. Always have “taxi money”.

What I’ve noticed in my successful female friends is they ask a lot of “how” questions, not “why” questions. Like if they wanted to upgrade their car/house/job they wouldn’t say “why can I not afford this I work so hard” they’d ask. “How can I change to fund this”.

I love being the dumbest person in the room like yessss teach me all the things I didn’t even know existed. Leave me with 20 new things I need to start doing. Give me “ah-ha” moments every few hours. I love hanging out with people who are so much smarter than me.

I have no issue with crypto or NFTs . I have a HUGE issue with crypto & NFT being heavily pushed into low socioeconomic communities instead of index funds & bonds. Our people end up prone to high risk investments, and it’s unfair to sell them some get rich quick myth.

It’s so interesting watching the difference of when men will claim to be experts in their field vs women. Men will be like “I build a 1k email list in a week, this is my exact strategy” . Meanwhile we’ll create 7 figure companies & still feel like we don’t know enough to share.

Before you splurge 💰 on valentines day, a recent survey found that ONLY 7% of adults prefer gifts as their love language. Capitalism makes us think that’s the only way to make eachother happy. Instead, ask your partner was they *really* want this year.

Frugal tips that are just not worth it .1) buying cheap shoes . I once went on holiday in cheap $7 shoes. My toe was bleeding by the end of it. I bought a pair of converse that I’ve since used for 15+ countries with no problem.

Your relationship with money changes when you shift from doing things from love rather than shame.From “I have to save” to realising I deserve an rainy day fund .From “I have to create a retirement accoint” to I deserve a peaceful life when I stop working. You deserve better.

The most beautiful shift we’re seeing is the anti work movement. Not a movement where people don’t want to work, but people are putting up with less; they’re not afraid to jump ship, not afraid to discuss salaries, not afraid to demand for remote work. Their lives > their work.

This going to be an unpopular opinion but if women of colour + minorities want to succeed & have flexibility, it’s not in corporate. It’s in starting your own business. The hurdles of maternity, sexism, child penalties & glass ceiling almost disappear when it’s your own brand.

Nothing is more stressful than a 2023 study showing that even when hetero partners earn the same, women still do more housework & caregiving. The ONLY TIME domestic work was split 50/50 was when male partners did not work at all. Yikes.

maturing is realising that renting isn't "throwing money away". here's a few perks to renting that people don't talk about:.- flexibility: it's easier to get out of a lease than to sell ya house if you decide to move.- property maintenance/repair is not your responsibility.
