Sarah WeddePeople who can comfortably live off 30% of their income cluelessly explaining savings to people who can barely live off 100% of theirs is a phenomenon I encounter way too often.
YOU'RE NOT BETTER AT BUDGETING YOU JUST HAVE MORE MONEY.

folks just have no idea what it’s like to live in poverty unless they are *actively* in poverty. if they were living in poverty as a child, or 2 years ago, they’ve completely forgotten what it was actually like.
they want to believe that they got out because they worked hard, that they are in control. they can’t stomach nor confront the notion that they aren’t in control, that budgeting doesn’t make you wealthy.
wealth is just a measure of who you are standing on. never earned, always stolen.
