NEW POST! The Real Story of How I Paid Off My Mortgage in 4 Years. (Link in bio, babes) Personal finance is full of headlines following this format: Here’s How [Relatively Young Person] Paid off [Relatively Normal Debts] in [Relatively Short Timeframe]. Some are legitimately interesting or useful articles… but not many. Most are shortsighted and self-congratulatory wank sessions for aspiring upper-middle-class “finance gurus.” Far from offering helpful advice, their authors loudly announce their own obliviousness by attributing their lightning fast six-figure debt repayment to their bold decision to cut cable, lmao. These “…and you can too!” articles tend to focus on the same few points: 🔸Setting goals 🔸Cutting expenses 🔸Working real, real hard 🔸Contemplating how tough it is to resist going out for expensive cocktails with “the squad” 🔸Being super evasive about their income Ugh. Honestly, gag me. #mortgage #debt #personalfinancebywomen #personalfinance #payingoffdebt #debtfree #money #adulting https://www.instagram.com/p/CDMZxfdHyrT/?igshid=otqmbya40fnt
