Parent may be surprised how many people live paycheck to paycheck because they take vacations.

I’ve recently come across a financial audit show that might be generously described as Dave Ramsey meets Jerry Springer. I get the impression from the show’s founder that he sincerely cares about the topic and wished someone would have presented the topic to his dumb younger self the way he does now. I also don’t think it’s scripted much, other than him getting clear yes/no on which highly personal topics he can approach, and potentially joke about.

The people he has on the show, I think are representative of a certain demographic, and I’m continually amazed at the amount of financial illiteracy and lack of appreciation for the financial ramifications of their actions.

My brother used to have a highly paid corpo job.

Then he realised he didn't want to spend the rest of his life as a corpo drone and now he works 3 days a week. Ofcourse in Euro land that still gives you a pension and healthcare package. And he was lucky that he bought his apartment before the neighbourhood got gentrified.
