Not when her title says Watch me spend my entire monthly January wages. If she was overspending her title would be January wages plus more 🤷‍♀️

Because rich braggy people rarely do?

Humble decent ones do.

That's over 8k!!!! In a month 😮
I mean good for you, I would love to earn that kind of money. If you are happy about what you are spending it on, I wouldn't worry what a random bunch of people on the internet think.

For context my annual salary would equate to 2 months of yours 😄

You were wrong!

"the usual juggle"
😂😂

Well you’d think she’s Include her wage too 🤷

Going by some of your posts on this thread, you seem to want to sneak in some stealth boasts of your own...

This ⬆️. It's not an interesting or witty post, not really enlightening. Just boasting. Fine, if that makes her happy.

Let me tell you, OP, the cost of Lamasil is outrageous. I hope you never get athlete's foot, that would tip your budget over the edge.

Your monthly spend on beauty plus your meals out and coffees come to around our monthly income. Your top up shops are more than my monthly food bill. I don’t go without necessities and I save something most months. I suppose, if you can afford it, then why not but it all seems terribly wasteful to me.

@ruethewhirl i was on your thread about whether to buy a Dyson air wrap at £499 or a shark wave at similar price point

How very dare you, when some people won’t even be able to afford a comb.

Read the room

did you go for the £500 Dyson wrap in the end?

Oh yes? Which ones?

I work in a job that asks on the application form 'do you own property, including overseas', and the amount of people who 'incorrectly ' say no, is alarming. Maybe she does and it's owned outrightly, part of a trust or any other, so is not factored in.
Maybe she's not a waffly type, so went directly to why she's paying rent here.

You mean to say people who own a property overseas tick that they do not? They must struggle in life

This is so crass

Humble brag 🤢

My husband and I don’t own a property. We don’t want to and I don’t see that changing. We probably spend the same amount so could definitely afford to own.

I hope you enjoyed reading it, but your attempt at making a point of it is illogical. At no point on this thread have I claimed that I never make expensive purchases myself. The difference is that I don't chuck money around like OP does and I don't start threads boasting about how much I've spent on crap when some are struggling to make ends meet.

Hope you had fun stalking me though. Might I suggest a hobby or two?

Okay so you want to boast about how rich you are. Yawn.

Excellent point!

How much do you spend on eyelashes?

But some could say starting a thread about whether to buy a £500 hair appliance versus another very expensive was failing to “read the room” and when people were struggling to feed their children, grossly insensitive.

indeed some could argue the very items you were asking about was “chucking money around” on “crap” 😆
