You are not a failure.Yeah I know. That’s what I’m worried about. I already feel old. I just turned 25 and idk what I’ve been doing the past several years ha
I think that is pretty good/high or it was last time I checked.
The weird thing is I actually do sometimes save cash but then sometimes I go through phases or something. Idk. It is weird. Generally I am actually better about saving cash than I am saving money in a bank account and I don’t typically touch cash but then sometimes I have phases where I spend it. Think I am in one lately. But I might put some in my spot cause when it’s there I don’t spend it but when it’s in my purse/visible I do. Or I might put it all in my bank.
And thanks. That’s unfortunate but makes sense. Guess I will have to get a real job then.
Thanks. That’s good advice. I actually have heard my parents and brothers talk about retirement and stuff. My older brother is really good with his money and doesn’t spend like anything ha so they’ve talked about how I need to start putting money away. I think I might start that soon too. Idk. Idk if I want two savings accounts. Right now I just have one and no checking so I don’t touch it. I might make two eventually but trying to get to a certain amount first.
I don’t think of it that way but I guess maybe I am. Idk.
You make a 9 year old save for a car!?![]()
I guess so. Idk. I think I’ll be fine. I know how the real world works and stuff, just have never worked in it if that makes sense.
Yeah, probably not. Idk. I am kind of aware of that and in some ways have tried to get them to not. Idk. I think my mom especially enables me and/or babies me and is a little too dependent or something none of which is good. Although now that she has a job it’s been a little better. But I need to separate myself some. But the weird thing is when I am home alone or staying at my brother’s or wherever, I do way more and do my own dishes and stuff. When otherwise I don’t normally. And I am almost like too active and constantly moving around the house/take forever to do anything and wear myself out. As opposed to just planting and vegetating in front of a screen. So I think my mother enables me a bit and I’m kind of ashamed to say, I honestly think I probably let her/take advantage of it to an extent. Cause I also don’t do anything around the house yet when I am forced to, I do. So that’s also partly why I think I can handle a job and that stuff. I know how to do stuff but I just don’t most of the time. And that’s also partly why I don’t think that I’m actually depressed or anything cause when I’m away from this place, I actually do stuff and take care of myself and be responsible and am way happier too. I like being alone/away from them lol and I’m like totally different when I am. So I think I will be fine if I can get out. My brothers don’t really come home very much/stay away and they also both have good jobs and went to really good schools and stuff so idk why I haven’t. I think they (mostly mom) enable me/baby me much more than them/are too attached or something. And I think I am definitely the failure of the family lmfaooo
