If you're pulling in 20 grand a year, and you've got $70K in bad debt looming over your head, I regret to inform you that Spotify is not in the budget.
Honestly. I make considerably more than that and if Apple music wasn't included in my phone plan I wouldn't be paying for it I'd be hitting the bay lmao
I'm obsessed with music and podcasts (32k minutes of podcasts and 29k mins of music in my 2023 unwrapped). I listened to Spotify ads until I paid off my final mortgage payment last year. Now that I'm debt free, I pay a sub.
Brother $100 a year is not digging you out of $70k debt(most of which is student loan debt which is low interest and deferred till after college) It's probably worth the hundreds of hours a year to her, especially with the time someone in a field like that spends studying The less than $400 she would save before loan payments kick in will make no meaningful difference.
They see education as a form of class, the higher the education the higher on the hierarchy they think they are. It's funny because most of these PhD types couldn't do the work of an average blue collar worker
it's the old "starving artist" trope. Academics, more than artists, have this "suffering in the name of wisdom and higher knowledge" syndrome which, in their inflated opinion, sets them above the unenlightened common man! I was married to one, and he never recovered when non-degreed me (at the time) scored higher than he did on an iq test! That's when I realized I was smart enough for college. This was the early 80's, b4 all the gender studies and trans nonsense. Things were beginning to go south tho, and I forced myself thru, believing it would be worth it. Once in the working world, that bubble burst quickly enough. I was angry, but I handled it. I'm not as hopeful for this guy.
@@lololuv2012 Are you being obtuse or do u have some sort of cognitive deficit I should be aware of? I believe I stated that uni's still taught "more objectively focused career minded subjects" in the 80's vs the ideological and "feelings only, subjective truth liberal nonsense" being forced on students today. Hope that clears it up for u. If not.... Study Mark Twain. 🙃
As a young person taking a ridiculous amount of debt to learn about Shakespeare..... to then get a job teaching about Shakespeare to a group of young people that are taking in a ridiculous amount of debt to learn about Shakespeare.......sounds like a scheme to me 😂😂
Most of the students won't major in that though. It sucks we have to pay so much for the class to get our degree though. I was in college for computer science for a couple years before my dream job fell in my lap and I remember having to take so many useless classes unrelated to my major the first year lol.
She complained about being called immature but had a passive aggressive and defensive attitude during the whole episode. Girl I'm sorry but if you can't take criticism about cancelling a Spotify subscription while you have thousands in debt, you're immature.
God yes. I have a daughter spending 6 years to get a fine arts degree. Me: How…the math? Her: YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND ME!!! I WILL MANIFEST THE MONEY!!! I cut her off recently. I don’t think she realized all her prior manifesting was just spending my money.
I could sense the hostility 10 minutes in and that condescending comment about Caleb, a stranger, not knowing about her “world” really took the cake. This is someone who thinks that being able to keep a calm tone=personable and great at interviews. 🥴
And the fact that some company won't hire mentally ill people. Unless he joins one of those dei companies that doesn't care about talent but identity politics.
such an entitled person. “you wouldn’t understand” “so i need you to stop using the word mature” you’re literally immature. you’re a child justifying your expenses when you’re broke.
Look up vulnerable narcissism. A professor at my school presented an early draft of a study he did to some of us at a dinner. Absolutely mind blowing looking at it from a scientific perspective. It’s narcissism, just expressed in different ways. A victim mentality that society encourages.
Immature, entitled, terrified of criticism, defensive about everything, transitioned, mental health issues... This is only gonna get more common guys, unless we as a culture push back on this more.
I love this show, Caleb. Thank you for everything you and your team have done to help Americans live their best life, debt free. I just paid off my only credit card! My 4 month old daughter has to have open heart surgery in the next month, and your show has inspired me to cancel all of my subscriptions, and curb all unnecessary spending in order to truly focus on the budget so my boyfriend and I can pay off her hospital bills ahead of schedule. You guys are truly making a difference in people's lives. Thank you!
I hope your sweet little girl’s surgery goes/went well. I can’t imagine how stressful that must be for your family. Please remember to be kind to yourself during such a difficult time. ❤ Sending you lots of love and positive thoughts and prayers prayers prayers.
“ you’re not going to understand this. We come from different worlds,” is the understatement of the entire episode. Yes, we all come from the world of reality.
Thinking she'll make 65k as a newly-minted English professor made it especially clear to me that she does not understand the reality of academia in 2023.
“We come from different worlds”. This was so condescending. But when looked at in context of this whole interview, this person definitely does. This person lives in a fantasy world and Caleb is living in reality. Our world is so effed because this person’s self-righteous attitude is unfortunately more common than ever right now. “Don’t use the word immature. It’s very upsetting.” Lollll. If the shoe fits.
It's very common for people that have lived in school for almost 3 decades. It creates this weird hostility where you think you're an enlightened being and understand everything, when in reality, the value of a post secondary education is getting lower and lower by the day. Universities are activist daycares nowadays.
What really crushes is me is the fact that this person wants to continue to go in school. I wonder if she is only continuing school because she needs the validation she clearly gets from it.
The “you can’t listen to an ad?!” really hit me tbh, I cancelled my RUclips premium so fast after I heard that. I had my mulan moment of looking at my reflection and realizing I can listen to an ad
@@aa-kp1pmplease, show me an adblocker that’ll work for youtube on TV or for apps on mobile, or is this something that only exists outside of north america?
@@BIGFOOT-ENT. Hahaha! horrible analogy. Someone with that lack of education, skill, and level of maturity level shouldn't try correcting people when they're going to be embarrassingly wrong 🙌🏼😭
“You wouldn’t understand” 5 minutes later “That’s so dismissive” I’ve never understood or appreciated the arrogance of people asking for help while refusing to put their ego aside. Yucky
I genuinely wonder why people elect themselves to come on this show if they are going to be so defensive about everything. If I ever get the opportunity to have someone like Caleb go through my finances, I’d be so grateful for his input. He’s doing you a favor not the other way around.
These people are notoriously bad at being judged and anything less than complete and total "affirmation" of everything they do, is seen as a direct attack on them personally.
"We come from different worlds" and "you won't understand" does not mesh with the reality that we all have to make more money than we spend in order to live
Sounded like they dropped hints and eventually told her they wanted her out and she probably guilted them and so to avoid the issue before it came up they just gave them to money to “help survive”
A PhD in Shakespeare literature is outright criminal for a university to charge top dollar for. What a complete waste of time and money for such a minimal return on investment.
@@aquarterpastespecially that kind of phd. It’s one thing to get like a PhD in something like quantum computing, where there’s a viable high paying career that you can go into after (even if you don’t necessarily need a PhD to go into that career). But anything humanities you should get full funding or be able to pay up front because there isn’t any industry for it really. The only place you can go is academia, which doesn’t pay well enough to justify it if you can’t get funding.
I've worked in academia all my career and this is very much the attitude I've encountered. They really dupe these people into accepting lives doomed to poverty for the pursuit of knowledge. They never realize that knowledge is only as valuable as your ability to apply it.
Also spending all that on a niche subject that is very competitive. When she is getting evicted and her furniture repossessed she can always quote a bit of King Lear at them "Blow winds and crack your cheeks!!! No not the sofa!!"
Id argue universities arent the bastion of knowledge they once were, either. Its more of a massive detriment to a lot of people than it will ever have been a boon. They lie, cheat, steal, and indoctrinate, and you live with crippling debt and no career to show for it. But, you get to think you're very smart, I suppose.
When she blamed her ex for “spending all of her money”, meanwhile she barely makes enough to survive and is haggling over a Spotify subscription. Press X to doubt.
100% applaud Caleb's ability to deescalate the situations.... You could definitely tell she was edging towards aggression at some points especially talking about her degree and job after. And Caleb was able to tap dance around it so well.... People get so upset when somebody pokes holes in their dream, even more upset when those holes being poked are super rational.
Ya there's a good number of people who just stay in school because they don't know what to do next... Caleb always calls that out because it's such a waste of money and earning potential.
Everybody needs a reality check when the overall situation is so bad, compounded with poor financial habits. What's always surprising every single time is how people can just create some mental gymnastics to justify continuing these habits while clinging onto a dream that won't even have a chance at getting them out of it.
@@b.m.4066 You're misreading Caleb. He makes mistakes on occasion but always tries to push people just as far as they can be pushed to get the message across, and no further. So yeah, he yells and screams when the situation calls for it, but he also goes much easier on guests when he believes that is the better approach. This one is clearly intelligent in many ways but defensive and a bit rigid, and Caleb responded with nuance and trying to make a connection and making sure his intent behind using the word "maturity" was understood. And it largely worked; she clearly let some things slide but he got through to her. That's just how Caleb is, by the way, which is a major reason he's blown up the way he has. He might be picking and choosing guests that will get the most engagement and such, but he genuinely wants to help them.
“We come from different worlds, you’re not gonna understand this.” The way she said that was SO dismissive of Caleb. How does she know he doesn’t understand? She doesn’t know his life-maybe he does know. This was a frustrating episode.
@@fruitygranulizer540I don't think it's necessarily literature. I know two people who have PhDs in poetry, and they're incredibly down-to-earth. I think it's the PhD in general that makes some people think they're better than other people and just sooooooo much smarter.
@@susangroce643 while i do agree, there are some majors where i feel like getting a PhD is just so damn hard that they are smarter lol. although obviously being smart at a certain subject doesn't make anybody better than anyone, but i hope you get my point.
@@joshuavoss1387 don’t forget to add a little huff in the beginning of that statement. As if even saying this brings you utter annoyance to remind them 😂
Some people are book smart but not life smart. They feel the world owes them something for all their study. Well done Caleb trying to push on through this episode.
@@ThePaidAdventureOTR title says "she". Think Caleb would find out her pronouns before posting. So I'll take his word for it and not randomly throw out pronouns.
There isn't actually that much relation between being a good writer and a good speaker. I consider myself a decent writer. A key part of why I think my writing is decent is that I am in the habit of taking time to review what I write, adjust it, choose better phrasing to better communicate my thoughts etc etc. Can't do any of that in general conversation. You just talk, off the cuff, and whatever you say is what you say. So yeah, if you write a lot for study or work, it's really really easy to be a good writer and a garbage speaker.
I went to college too and there’s too many young PhD and doctorate students who think they know everything. The lack of humility is a little blood boiling. If you have bad debts and seeking financial advise then you should take a humility pill and listen to him. Stop thinking you know everything you’re just a kid
I have said it before and I will say it again. It should be illegal for any University to hire anyone to teach a class on a subject until they have 10 years of work experience in a relevant field. I have seen way too many "professors" who have never actually worked a single day of their lives in their chosen field. They just spent a decade in school and then got a job in their university. This shouldn't be allowed to happen.
@mattbenz99 Yep. That's where the saying comes from "those that can do. Those that can't teach.". The unis where I live will pay a premium for lecturers who have actual experience in the field of study.
that's excessive and unrealistic, universities are synonymous with academia, if they want vocational experience, they should go to a vocational school. or take a course that's intertwined with work experience, e.g. nursing. but i see your point about humility. i do find phd students overbearing
I can't imagine how people think coming on a show like this is going to be a pleasant experience and be coddled. Thank you Caleb for holding the people on your show accountable.
"What did you come here for?" the "My Hero" moment. Caleb is right; Death by a thousand cuts will always do it. Also, I never underestimate how those little savings add up.
What a snot. She just automatically assumed Caleb wouldn’t understand what she wants to do with her degree. “Because they come from different worlds” what a pile of BS!
And I wonder why the marriage didn’t work (regardless of her identify) 🤦🏽♀️ her snarky comments , inability to take a criticism, and her unwillingness to see a different perspective ; I’m sure this is a personality trait that she’s had her whole life 🫣 it’s hard to make a life with such an individual
He was probably not always like this, but remember, doctors prescribe them chemicals aka hormones to “change their physical appearance “ but it changes their mentality more than anything..
“I won’t have any problems getting a job. There are lots of jobs I’ll be able to get” Proceeds to demonstrate exactly zero interpersonal skills whatsoever.
I can bet you this person is going to be a headache and a half for many departments unless an attitude change takes place. This was one of the hardest things I learned myself when I got out of college. Technical skills aside, people care a lot about social skills. I can bet you this person will be an HR nightmare, and potential coworkers are going to walk around eggshells trying to avoid trouble.
Right…they didn’t come across as particularly likable or intelligent in this convo. Obviously lacking maturity in a lot of areas, too. Add that to the fact that a lot of ppl don’t wanna deal with the potential HR nightmares of the gender specials..??? Yet they think they’re going to get some special academia job any day now.
I think this is a perfect advert for why it should exist, but it should be paired with laws forcing colleges to charge proportionate to the lifetime earning potential ON AVERAGE of everyone with a degree, meaning they cannot charge a clueless child who's not got an ounce of wits from being in the real world much more than a degree could ever be worth to them.
@@benisprobablyangry239agreed, if you want to spend two years after college studying poetry, that's fine but the college should be willing to finance it or have you pay rather than have the government cover the student loans.
I don't understand why people apply to this opportunity and then are completely unable to accept Caleb's help. It's natural to get a little defensive but they're not listening to Caleb at all.... I'm glad he asked. "What did you come here for?" That's the real question.
The most aggravating part of this whole interview was the guest's inability to answer a simple question with a straightforward answer. Everything is an argument with this one.
She might have the lowest chance of success of anyone on the show. When he was talking about paying down she had absolutely zero interest. Like she’s actively against the idea of paying it
I am also confused by this individuals passive aggressive attitude and unwillingness to make changes. But as you say why even sign up for this if you think you have everything sorted? Sometimes I wonder if some of these people think they are going to impress Caleb with their financial situations and be regarded as a financial genius. From experience, this is very par for the course with these academic individuals that assume because they have done 8 years of post secondary they know better in every aspect of life.
@@LynsanityXOXOXOSo true. I had to bust my chops earning Magna Cum Laude degrees, to realize it was a pile of meaningless brain destroying 💩. Uni is just a training center for total uniformity and to accept other's ideas and opinions as gospel! Anyone interested in real knowledge can accomplish their goals independently, plus the help of those with actual hands on experience. Higher Ed is a total scam!
Of all the arrogant comments I actually understood that one the most. She must be incredibly tired of people asking her what she plans to do with her degree (even if the questioning is justified) so she says that to deflect. The second Caleb mentioned his degree she opened up about it with little issue
My respect for Caleb went way up with this episode. He stood his ground in a reasonable way when I think a lot of people would have backed down given the circumstances at play.
Yup you can tell he’s used to getting his way with “I’m trans” and “mental health”. Look how he thinks he can police how Caleb talks because it’s “upsetting”, even though Caleb is just trying to open his eyes to the truth.
Nobody who lives outside of their bubble would back down. That dude would've walked out once the surgery topic came up and he was told how unnecessary and worthless it was.
Math and numbers are math and numbers no matter how hard it is to deal with it. Gotta live in the real world. I myself was a little to lax with my budget this year. Should have saved a lot more than I did.
The silence after that statement was deafening. I actually burst out laughing. This person needs to wake up before it's twenty years from now and they're in the same position that they are in now.
Going to someone for help because you can’t manage the simple things in life and then calling them dumb by saying you are in different worlds is such a wild thing.
@@hallegustafson4531 I just find the fact that a bloke can wear a dress and people pretend he’s a woman very strange. I’ll put cat ears on my dog and you can call it a pussy 👍 weirdo.
When you have one of yhem delusional rainbow hair troglodyte and you don't wanna get 'cancel' during Biden mulvaney hr... yeah. Thank God this aged like milk and we will likely not have to see the platform ingredients of these delusional nutjobs for 4 years.
Late to this video but the whole "youre not going to understand this we come from different worlds" and then Caleb said he also perused an arts degree. Ate her up 😂
Fucking hell man. Im here stressin out about being about $3000 or so in debt while this person is at $75,000. I couldn't imagine myself getting that deep in debt holy shit
Eh 69k of that is student. Private is easy to payoff and loan forgiveness for federal happens on income based plans or if working for public service. Not terrible.
I've got over $80,000 in student loans 😰 I'm finally at a point where I'm making enough to easily pay it back... if I didn't have a mortgage, car payments, and four kids. I could've paid it all off during the student loan freeze, but instead I used to money to put a down-payment on a house. I'd do it again though, can't live with four kids in a two bedroom apartment.
When friends that've done you a favor and allowed you stay with them for a time and then ask you to move out. And give you money too. Your friends have given you money to leave. They've become so desperate to see you to the door they're willing to pay money to get rid of you.
Just want to add that not all university educators are required to be experienced in education… Sorry, just had to defend real educators real quick but I agree with ya :/
This person is more worried about maintaining an image than confronting reality. Hopefully someone in the audience gets some value from this because clearly the guest didn’t want to.
Unfortunately, I think she's letting her own ego sabotage her growth. She's in for a miserable time through life unless she can learn the difference between constructive criticism and toxic criticism. Feedback is a gift.
I think they are trying to maintain other 'things' and live in a fantasy world... Straight guy who decides to identify as a lesbian goes through gender change.... Yikes... Lmao smh problem with this world.
Millionaire is easier to obtain than professor. There are so many people competing for so few jobs in academia. It might be easier to get a STEM professorship, but it took me three years from getting my PhD to get on the tenure track. I think that the best way to become a millionaire right now is to learn how to weld or do plumbing or some specialized skill related to construction and then start a company eventually. No student debt to overcome and lots of work available. It will be hard work, and it will be physically demanding work, but I think it is more likely to produce millionaire status than trying to become a professor will produce professor status.
Damn this was a tough one. This person getting upset over Caleb asking about future jobs was so telling. He’s there to help you you nimrod, it’s not a personal attack
For someone studying literature she has real trouble articulating in what way she disagrees with you. Rather than formulate an argument she'll sit there and stare at you until you say something, or say "I don't know what you want me to say"
I had a philosophy professor like this. Would talk in circles, contradict herself in explaining an assessment, and the only reason a majority of the class passed is because she adjusted grading. My sister is taking the same class different professor and is telling me about all the different philosophies she's learning
It's sad people choose paths that down the road probably won't work out for them and there is no one telling them this isn't the best option for them. I've hired a few where they got a degree and still couldn't perform the basic job functions.
Not a good trait in someone that plans to be a professor (they do give students the ability to rate their professors EACH semester). The BEST professor I have had taught us to CHALLENGE each other's opinions, rather than disagree; a trait I have taken with me into the professional world, which works VERY well.
@@macawyndy If I was forced to gamble on this; I'd wager that the lion's share of them *have* been told this. They just threw a fit at each person until they stopped talking to them about it.
To me, the "Different Worlds" comment was because she is used to "What are you gonna do with that?" being a sarcastic gotcha as opposed to a genuine question of a future career
This was exactly why I didn’t go into academia. This person REEKS of pretentiousness. “I just don’t think you’re correct” “Ok…..that’s fine 😐” Having a PhD doesn’t equate to having intelligence.
Yeah, it'll get out of school and "protest" for rights it already has for a few years then complain about capitalism while collecting welfare and snap. It's a very common mentally ill college kid arc.
Yeah, I have a bachelor of arts with a history and english major and education, theology and marketing minors. Most thought I'd just go into being a college prof but I learned I don't fit in that ivory tower when I was first getting an Education major. I like learning but not paying for it in a silly classroom. Better, quicker and cheaper to learn on my own. Most think I have a higher degree than I do, which is fine.
Sometimes, people get a PhD due to lack of intelligence. When I finished my bachelor's, plan A was to get a job and plan B was to do a master's. Several of us had that plan. As you can imagine, the more intelligent ones are more likely to get hired. It's not unusual that people continue in academia, because they are unable to get a job.
I mean, people do understand it, they just don't want to live like the complete retches our society forces us to be while they try to pay it off. I was 40k in debt, I still used Amazon Prime, Netflix, I occasionally went out to eat. Not being able to unwind in ways that are enjoyable to me would have driven me to suicide long before I paid off my debt by simply having $15 extra in my pocket per month. Accumulating debt like I had, without student debt or house loans is about lifestyle creep. Two or three essential subscriptions is not lifestyle creep.
@@BasedHyperborean Maybe not for you. You do realize that a $15 subscription service is not what is holding these people back from paying off their debt right?
@@Raziaardepends on the number of subscriptions I guess. Single one isn't going to make much difference, but majority of these people have spotify, Disney+, netflix and whole bunch of other stuff, lot of times they say "Oh I forgot about that".
I used to be a financial consultant and I would approach students at universities and I still remember I talked with a girl who had a PhD in philosophy and she didn't understand the existence of taxes or why it could make sense to know how to and fill out a tax form. Like she didn't understand the what like money is, I was baffled, she couldn't understand basic concepts. Eventually I found out that her parents just pay for everything, she didn't even sign her own Appartment and her parents bring or buy her food. Like how, how do you not understand what money is, how do you have a PhD??
If anything these audits have taught me is that people tend to go to grad school to delay the responsibilities that come with adulthood, and for the opportunity to use their “education” to feel superior to others.
I know people in the comments may not like most guests on the channels but it is really interesting to see different kinds of people with different thought process come on and have conversations. Caleb navigating through them and having the best intentions for his guests is a joy to watch regardless of their behaviour.
I'm also in a Ph.D. program, and I'm surprised the guest is so defensive about how costly doing this is. The opportunity cost of being in a Ph.D. program is massive, especially when you have high-interest student loans and live in Austin. Most other people our age are working jobs with salaries; meanwhile, we are living barely above poverty for most of our 20s. You and the guest do not live in two different worlds: it's objectively costly to go to graduate school (even if it's paid for, something that is standard). The guest also underestimates how hard it is to leave academia if they don't land a tenure-track post. They spend six years grinding on a degree, all to leave the profession and do a job where their skills will only tangentially carry over. That's psychologically hard. I wouldn't be surprised if the guest pursues temporary academic jobs (post-docs, visiting positions, etc.), which also carry additional opportunity costs and marginal increases in salary. This is a pretty rough episode. I don't know why the guest came on (and I sense Caleb is similarly confused!), and I don't know why they think they can talk to Caleb as if they live in two wholly different worlds. You are both in the same world: it's objectively costly to do academia, and we should be realistic and not defensive about that! Also Caleb have me on, thanks
Not sure why anyone would do a not funded phd. Almost every university has funded phD programs. It’s also very difficult to get an academic job so she needs to find other options
@@asarsou1Assuming all PHDs are funded, but one must go to a specific college to get the funding, this line of thought makes sense. I don't think most who go into PHD programs do so thinking about the outcomes, though. Romanticism of the degree without seeing the practical application of it is the primary reason graduate school still exists, from what I've observed.
@@andraconstantin9459I definitely wouldn’t call it instant gratification. Surgery (paying for it, having surgery, recovering from it, etc) is a lengthy process. I would agree that maaaaaybe it would be better to wait till there was some financial independence/stability before getting surgery, but dysphoria can extremely exacerbate any depression and/or anxiety.
My husband and I paid off a 40k personal loan (consolidation) 2.5 years early due in major part to this channel. I hope Caleb continues to do this, I think it’s extremely valuable
You and this person are the 2 reasons I am against student loan forgiveness. You sacrificed and worked had You shouldnt have to pay for other people. This person runs up debt and has no real cares about it.
@KaiStarkk How is it all of them? Most paths teach you how to get a job in the field. Sure, you can become a professor in that subject, but you also have other options that add things to society. Going to college for Shakespeare has no realistic end goal besides being a professor. To do what? Teach other people to be professors. It just creates professors for the sake of creating professors in a closed loop that never ends.
Unfortunately, we treat all degrees as if they are equal, but they are not. College students should take English and humanities classes, so there need to be professors in these fields, but there do not need to be as many PhDs and masters degrees in these subjects as we need in STEM.
I manage two large teams of accountants. I can confidently say that if someone came in with her attitude, it would be an immediate no. She will be all drama.
@@IAmebAdger I completely agree 😂. But I’m speaking more towards attitude. No one wants to hire someone with that level of hubris and ego. It’s a nasty vibe to bring to any team.
I love the “why’d you come here for?” question 😂 if you’re not going to accept the financial advice then get out of there! And fyi, always going over the budget means YOU DON’T RESPECT THE BUDGET hence why you are at Financial Audit looking for help from Caleb 😅
An yes, one of my biggest pet peeves. People asking for helpful advice from those they supposedly think can actually help them only to dismiss the advice provided.
Why do I feel like this is the first time this person hasn’t been treated with kid gloves. We really do need to NOT be afraid to help and tell people the truth
Yep. First time someone’s actually pushed back on their world view about anything. They live in a world of feelings and personal truths instead of facts and reality. The Spotify conversation summed it up perfectly.
Shhhh. The fat white liberal women might start accusing you for being a 'transphobe'. Oh nvm they are busy setting up their phone to film themselves crying. Because that's totally normal behavior.
I feel it would be really helpful for all concerned (the person being interviewed, the audience and also Caleb) for the person to be asked at the very start of the interview "What specifically do you hope to learn/achieve from this episode?" and "What would that look like?"
@@jaad9848the problem is there not going to admit what they did wrong and honestly from my point of view, it seems most of these people don’t even realize what they did was wrong until Caleb yells ab it
She was insufferable. The idea that she would be a teacher, in any aspect, is alarming. Her defensive attitude and trying to sound like she knows more than she does, when she literally chose to come on this show? Stop it.
@@revanite2982 right there’s no fooling us with that. It’s so funny people in the comments will call you science deniers for saying that transgender studies is a scam.
I'm a PhD student in archaeology. It's one of those thing you really have to have self discipline for. You make your own time and plan your own project and manage the skills courses you take. Financial discipline is absolutely 100% necessary. If I want to go on to research I have to know how to budget grant money because whoever funds me will expect receipts and an itemised list of expenses. That said, I love my project and feel so lucky to be able to do what I do.
“It’s the small things”- I am beyond guilty of this! Buying nonsense is my biggest financial problem. This channel is helping me stop and I am grateful!!
Thats what I grew out of when I realized that shit like pop vinyl and collectives just collect dust. Eventually I only collected what I REALLY wanted then I stopped completely.
Loll Caleb definitely SILENCED them😂.Like let’s be real for a second. Most people who come on this show are just entitled 40% of them actually are willing to listen and learn. They got mad when being called immature but the passive aggressive attitude?? Bring back shame please😭🤦🏾♀️🙏🏾. I cannot do this anymore.
I finished this interview solely to learn from the way Caleb conducted himself with an impossibly frustrating human being. I cannot find one redeeming quality. I questioned multiple times, "why are they here?" I don't think she will change at all. She is so incredibly pompous, put her foot in her mouth multiple times and never humbled. I did learn how to be poised with difficult individuals. Bravo to Caleb, I hope this human gets the help/confidence/self-validity they so desperately lack.
Pretty sure the reason she wants to stay in school forever is because the environment caters and enables her narcissism and other mental issues. Debt is probably the least of her problems.
The “i had to eat when i was there” Listen Every solo trip I’ve ever done, i go to the local grocery store and buy bread cold cuts tomatoes fruits chips and snacks and water and i pack a sandwich with snacks for lunch everyday! I make coffee at the hotel and use an instant oatmeal packet as my breakfast or get a hotel with free breakfast and usually skip dinner and go to bed early but if i want to be out late I’ll eat something simple like a slice of pizza. Simple simple simple No need to go broke at restaurants unless its like a romantic couples vacation If you’re solo, eat conservatively! I always come back a few pounds lighter too which is a plus!
A professor? As someone who regrettably majored in the Arts from a financial perspective, studying Shakespeare is a terrible reason to go into crazy amounts of debt. You can literally read Shakespeare at home. Landing a job as a professor is hard and its not even always rewarding financially considering the debt obtained to get there.
Exactly... and there's basically nothing new with Shakespeare. Hus work and life has been studied by thousands for hundreds of years... so the likelihood that you'll have some groundbreaking insight to add to the discussion that can only be achieved with tens of thousands of dollars is laughably stupid. And then these people can't understand why other people don't think as highly if them as they think of themselves... it's because the smart person would just study Shakespeare in their own time, for free... and then if they did have such great insights they'd still be able to publish and create content without the degree.
@@uui219 Would you spend 80-100k for 7 years of studying Shakespeare( or anything you couldve read for free) to come out and make adjunct professor for 60k/year? If the answer if yes, you failed math class all due respect.
34:40.... the silent rage is palpable. You can really start to see how this person has never been challenged before. Up to this point there have been many excuses, condescending remarks, rude behaviour and the list goes on. Caleb is a saint for putting up with this.
I understand not wanting to deal with ads but when I was in debt, cancelling my subscriptions to pay them off was the best decision I had made lol people don’t know how to make sacrifices
I once was on track to earn a PhD in English. I quit after my masters. Why? Because my professors point blank explained to me that if I graduated with a PhD I would be waiting for a professor to die and hope the university didn’t just eliminate their position entirely. And that was TWENTY years ago. When she says her position is precarious she means she has a very very very very very LOW chance of getting a professorship. She’ll be an adjunct at a community college for $35,000 a year. And there’s no shame in that - I’ll be doing that shortly. But I don’t have any student loan debt. Yikes.
@@janicehuff1183 yep. It’s part time pay with no benefits for full time work. A total scam. But it’s hard to say if it’s worse than the way they take advantage of graduate students.
Caleb walked on eggshells for this one. I can't imagine this person handling normal Caleb very well. Very considerate of him, but this person needs to accept some harsh truths in life.
I cancelled *all* of my subscriptions based on your videos. I was spending $70/month on pretty much nothing! I plan on looking through my entire budget and trying to cut things where I can. Thanks Caleb!!
I think it has to do with how and when he gives them the course. He makes the offer at the beginning when they were super defensive and follows it with a hard plug. If he did it at the end like “here’s you budget, (plug corse) I’m giving you this course for free to keep on track” I think people would be more thankful

Brother $100 a year is not digging you out of $70k debt(most of which is student loan debt which is low interest and deferred till after college)
It's probably worth the hundreds of hours a year to her, especially with the time someone in a field like that spends studying
The less than $400 she would save before loan payments kick in will make no meaningful difference.
It’s always odd to me how people (especially “academics”) can come off as elitist and be broke at the same time.
They see education as a form of class, the higher the education the higher on the hierarchy they think they are.
It's funny because most of these PhD types couldn't do the work of an average blue collar worker

it's the old "starving artist" trope. Academics, more than artists, have this "suffering in the name of wisdom and higher knowledge" syndrome which, in their inflated opinion, sets them above the unenlightened common man!
I was married to one, and he never recovered when non-degreed me (at the time) scored higher than he did on an iq test! That's when I realized I was smart enough for college. This was the early 80's, b4 all the gender studies and trans nonsense.

This is what lack of accountability looks like.
A PhD in Shakespeare literature is outright criminal for a university to charge top dollar for. What a complete waste of time and money for such a minimal return on investment.
PhD in literature is not an investment. It is an expansive hobby.
If you spend money on a PhD you’re doing it wrong. You should secure full funding, or don’t go at all.

@@aquarterpastespecially that kind of phd. It’s one thing to get like a PhD in something like quantum computing, where there’s a viable high paying career that you can go into after (even if you don’t necessarily need a PhD to go into that career). But anything humanities you should get full funding or be able to pay up front because there isn’t any industry for it really. The only place you can go is academia, which doesn’t pay well enough to justify it if you can’t get funding.
No one forces people into these pointless majors
I've worked in academia all my career and this is very much the attitude I've encountered. They really dupe these people into accepting lives doomed to poverty for the pursuit of knowledge. They never realize that knowledge is only as valuable as your ability to apply it.
Also spending all that on a niche subject that is very competitive. When she is getting evicted and her furniture repossessed she can always quote a bit of King Lear at them "Blow winds and crack your cheeks!!! No not the sofa!!"
Don't worry, no one is gaining any knowledge in the field of literature.
….or willingness to apply it.
Id argue universities arent the bastion of knowledge they once were, either.
Its more of a massive detriment to a lot of people than it will ever have been a boon. They lie, cheat, steal, and indoctrinate, and you live with crippling debt and no career to show for it.
But, you get to think you're very smart, I suppose.
There is nothing wrong if you want to study things that won't make money. You just need have other means to finance your life.
One common theme with ALL of Caleb’s guests - no matter what financial situation they come to the show with - it’s ALWAYS someone else’s fault.
I love her blaming the ex wife for her current financial mess 😂.

So yeah, he yells and screams when the situation calls for it, but he also goes much easier on guests when he believes that is the better approach. This one is clearly intelligent in many ways but defensive and a bit rigid, and Caleb responded with nuance and trying to make a connection and making sure his intent behind using the word "maturity" was understood. And it largely worked; she clearly let some things slide but he got through to her. That's just how Caleb is, by the way, which is a major reason he's blown up the way he has. He might be picking and choosing guests that will get the most engagement and such, but he genuinely wants to help them.

Having a PhD has nothing to do with your ability to speak without using thinking words. It’s harder than you think and almost everyone does it.
There isn't actually that much relation between being a good writer and a good speaker.
I consider myself a decent writer. A key part of why I think my writing is decent is that I am in the habit of taking time to review what I write, adjust it, choose better phrasing to better communicate my thoughts etc etc.
Can't do any of that in general conversation. You just talk, off the cuff, and whatever you say is what you say.
So yeah, if you write a lot for study or work, it's really really easy to be a good writer and a garbage speaker.

I went to college too and there’s too many young PhD and doctorate students who think they know everything. The lack of humility is a little blood boiling. If you have bad debts and seeking financial advise then you should take a humility pill and listen to him. Stop thinking you know everything you’re just a kid
I have said it before and I will say it again. It should be illegal for any University to hire anyone to teach a class on a subject until they have 10 years of work experience in a relevant field. I have seen way too many "professors" who have never actually worked a single day of their lives in their chosen field. They just spent a decade in school and then got a job in their university. This shouldn't be allowed to happen.
@mattbenz99 Yep. That's where the saying comes from "those that can do. Those that can't teach.". The unis where I live will pay a premium for lecturers who have actual experience in the field of study.
that's excessive and unrealistic, universities are synonymous with academia, if they want vocational experience, they should go to a vocational school. or take a course that's intertwined with work experience, e.g. nursing. but i see your point about humility. i do find phd students overbearing

From experience, this is very par for the course with these academic individuals that assume because they have done 8 years of post secondary they know better in every aspect of life.
@@LynsanityXOXOXOSo true. I had to bust my chops earning Magna Cum Laude degrees, to realize it was a pile of meaningless brain destroying 💩. Uni is just a training center for total uniformity and to accept other's ideas and opinions as gospel!
Anyone interested in real knowledge can accomplish their goals independently, plus the help of those with actual hands on experience. Higher Ed is a total scam!
The arrogance that exuded when she says, "You won't understand. We come from different worlds."
They do though. One's from Lala Land and the other one lives in reality
Of all the arrogant comments I actually understood that one the most. She must be incredibly tired of people asking her what she plans to do with her degree (even if the questioning is justified) so she says that to deflect. The second Caleb mentioned his degree she opened up about it with little issue
My mouth literally dropped at that exchange, it was so awkward. I’m glad Caleb asked for clarification. Her justification totally fell through.
@@grantbaker86 I have a PhD, though in STEM, so I think I have some understanding of what she's trying to say. But that tone was just pure arrogance.
What do you expect is a man thinking it's woman woman
My respect for Caleb went way up with this episode. He stood his ground in a reasonable way when I think a lot of people would have backed down given the circumstances at play.
Exactly, everyone's got to act like they are stepping on glass when dealing with people like this.
Yup you can tell he’s used to getting his way with “I’m trans” and “mental health”. Look how he thinks he can police how Caleb talks because it’s “upsetting”, even though Caleb is just trying to open his eyes to the truth.
Nobody who lives outside of their bubble would back down. That dude would've walked out once the surgery topic came up and he was told how unnecessary and worthless it was.

Caleb handled so deftly her pushbacks, without any anger or irritations. And yet still addressed her inconsistencies. Great show

Just want to add that not all university educators are required to be experienced in education… Sorry, just had to defend real educators real quick but I agree with ya :/
This person is more worried about maintaining an image than confronting reality. Hopefully someone in the audience gets some value from this because clearly the guest didn’t want to.
Classic liberal weirdo. This guy has major mental ill es that isn’t getting dealt with. And he’s teaching kids which is the scariest parts.

agreed sir
"I could be a professor" holds as much value as "I could be a millionaire" or "I could be living on Jupiter"
Millionaire is easier to obtain than professor. There are so many people competing for so few jobs in academia. It might be easier to get a STEM professorship, but it took me three years from getting my PhD to get on the tenure track.
I think that the best way to become a millionaire right now is to learn how to weld or do plumbing or some specialized skill related to construction and then start a company eventually. No student debt to overcome and lots of work available. It will be hard work, and it will be physically demanding work, but I think it is more likely to produce millionaire status than trying to become a professor will produce professor status.
"I could be debt-free!"
Damn this was a tough one. This person getting upset over Caleb asking about future jobs was so telling. He’s there to help you you nimrod, it’s not a personal attack
That's what happens when a person is perpetually in victim mode.
What a combative & rude person.
I commend you Caleb, you have far more patience than I do.
What do you expect from someone mentally unstable?
That's academia in a nutshell. One has to be combative to survive, generally.
Rudest and most combative guest .
You’re cute
Those “type” of people always are.
For someone studying literature she has real trouble articulating in what way she disagrees with you. Rather than formulate an argument she'll sit there and stare at you until you say something, or say "I don't know what you want me to say"
I had a philosophy professor like this. Would talk in circles, contradict herself in explaining an assessment, and the only reason a majority of the class passed is because she adjusted grading. My sister is taking the same class different professor and is telling me about all the different philosophies she's learning
It's sad people choose paths that down the road probably won't work out for them and there is no one telling them this isn't the best option for them. I've hired a few where they got a degree and still couldn't perform the basic job functions.
Not a good trait in someone that plans to be a professor (they do give students the ability to rate their professors EACH semester). The BEST professor I have had taught us to CHALLENGE each other's opinions, rather than disagree; a trait I have taken with me into the professional world, which works VERY well.
The amount of "like" fillers was also bonkers!
@@macawyndy If I was forced to gamble on this; I'd wager that the lion's share of them *have* been told this. They just threw a fit at each person until they stopped talking to them about it.
To me, the "Different Worlds" comment was because she is used to "What are you gonna do with that?" being a sarcastic gotcha as opposed to a genuine question of a future career
This was exactly why I didn’t go into academia. This person REEKS of pretentiousness.
“I just don’t think you’re correct”
“Ok…..that’s fine 😐”
Having a PhD doesn’t equate to having intelligence.
Yeah, it'll get out of school and "protest" for rights it already has for a few years then complain about capitalism while collecting welfare and snap. It's a very common mentally ill college kid arc.
Yeah, I have a bachelor of arts with a history and english major and education, theology and marketing minors. Most thought I'd just go into being a college prof but I learned I don't fit in that ivory tower when I was first getting an Education major. I like learning but not paying for it in a silly classroom. Better, quicker and cheaper to learn on my own. Most think I have a higher degree than I do, which is fine.
Your 'degree' is just as much as a waste of the guests 😂😂
Sometimes, people get a PhD due to lack of intelligence. When I finished my bachelor's, plan A was to get a job and plan B was to do a master's. Several of us had that plan. As you can imagine, the more intelligent ones are more likely to get hired. It's not unusual that people continue in academia, because they are unable to get a job.

The comment on Spotify SENT ME. People just don't understand what it means to be in debt. YOU DON'T HAVE THOSE $10
I mean, people do understand it, they just don't want to live like the complete retches our society forces us to be while they try to pay it off. I was 40k in debt, I still used Amazon Prime, Netflix, I occasionally went out to eat. Not being able to unwind in ways that are enjoyable to me would have driven me to suicide long before I paid off my debt by simply having $15 extra in my pocket per month.
Accumulating debt like I had, without student debt or house loans is about lifestyle creep. Two or three essential subscriptions is not lifestyle creep.
40k is basically nothing to most of his guests.
@@Raziaarmusic and streaming services aren’t essential in any way whatsoever.
@@BasedHyperborean Maybe not for you. You do realize that a $15 subscription service is not what is holding these people back from paying off their debt right?
@@Raziaardepends on the number of subscriptions I guess. Single one isn't going to make much difference, but majority of these people have spotify, Disney+, netflix and whole bunch of other stuff, lot of times they say "Oh I forgot about that".
I used to be a financial consultant and I would approach students at universities and I still remember I talked with a girl who had a PhD in philosophy and she didn't understand the existence of taxes or why it could make sense to know how to and fill out a tax form. Like she didn't understand the what like money is, I was baffled, she couldn't understand basic concepts. Eventually I found out that her parents just pay for everything, she didn't even sign her own Appartment and her parents bring or buy her food.

“I understand”
She did not, in fact, understand
I know people in the comments may not like most guests on the channels but it is really interesting to see different kinds of people with different thought process come on and have conversations. Caleb navigating through them and having the best intentions for his guests is a joy to watch regardless of their behaviour.
I'm also in a Ph.D. program, and I'm surprised the guest is so defensive about how costly doing this is. The opportunity cost of being in a Ph.D. program is massive, especially when you have high-interest student loans and live in Austin. Most other people our age are working jobs with salaries; meanwhile, we are living barely above poverty for most of our 20s. You and the guest do not live in two different worlds: it's objectively costly to go to graduate school (even if it's paid for, something that is standard).
The guest also underestimates how hard it is to leave academia if they don't land a tenure-track post. They spend six years grinding on a degree, all to leave the profession and do a job where their skills will only tangentially carry over. That's psychologically hard. I wouldn't be surprised if the guest pursues temporary academic jobs (post-docs, visiting positions, etc.), which also carry additional opportunity costs and marginal increases in salary.
This is a pretty rough episode. I don't know why the guest came on (and I sense Caleb is similarly confused!), and I don't know why they think they can talk to Caleb as if they live in two wholly different worlds. You are both in the same world: it's objectively costly to do academia, and we should be realistic and not defensive about that!
Also Caleb have me on, thanks
Not sure why anyone would do a not funded phd. Almost every university has funded phD programs. It’s also very difficult to get an academic job so she needs to find other options
@@asarsou1Assuming all PHDs are funded, but one must go to a specific college to get the funding, this line of thought makes sense. I don't think most who go into PHD programs do so thinking about the outcomes, though. Romanticism of the degree without seeing the practical application of it is the primary reason graduate school still exists, from what I've observed.
Yeah but he wanted gender reassignment surgery on top. It's instant gratification and me me me me me. Wahhhh.
@@andraconstantin9459I definitely wouldn’t call it instant gratification. Surgery (paying for it, having surgery, recovering from it, etc) is a lengthy process. I would agree that maaaaaybe it would be better to wait till there was some financial independence/stability before getting surgery, but dysphoria can extremely exacerbate any depression and/or anxiety.
Also… the title says “she” so just out of basic respect maybe just use her correct pronouns?
My husband and I paid off a 40k personal loan (consolidation) 2.5 years early due in major part to this channel. I hope Caleb continues to do this, I think it’s extremely valuable
Good for both of you
You and this person are the 2 reasons I am against student loan forgiveness. You sacrificed and worked had You shouldnt have to pay for other people. This person runs up debt and has no real cares about it.
You did it! You made changes! Not Caleb!
I don't understand college paths that train you to be a professor to train others to be professors.
@KaiStarkk How is it all of them? Most paths teach you how to get a job in the field. Sure, you can become a professor in that subject, but you also have other options that add things to society.
Going to college for Shakespeare has no realistic end goal besides being a professor. To do what? Teach other people to be professors. It just creates professors for the sake of creating professors in a closed loop that never ends.
@LtColShingSides tbf to him, a PhD in Shakespeare can teach any general English or literature class
Unfortunately, we treat all degrees as if they are equal, but they are not.
College students should take English and humanities classes, so there need to be professors in these fields, but there do not need to be as many PhDs and masters degrees in these subjects as we need in STEM.

I did learn how to be poised with difficult individuals. Bravo to Caleb, I hope this human gets the help/confidence/self-validity they so desperately lack.

A professor? As someone who regrettably majored in the Arts from a financial perspective, studying Shakespeare is a terrible reason to go into crazy amounts of debt. You can literally read Shakespeare at home. Landing a job as a professor is hard and its not even always rewarding financially considering the debt obtained to get there.
Exactly... and there's basically nothing new with Shakespeare. Hus work and life has been studied by thousands for hundreds of years... so the likelihood that you'll have some groundbreaking insight to add to the discussion that can only be achieved with tens of thousands of dollars is laughably stupid.
And then these people can't understand why other people don't think as highly if them as they think of themselves... it's because the smart person would just study Shakespeare in their own time, for free... and then if they did have such great insights they'd still be able to publish and create content without the degree.
He could join a Shakespeare reading group. Write poetry and share on his social media. Jeepers.

This is an all time Caleb Hammer Moment! So glad you highlighted so I could go back and watch it like 5 times!
I once was on track to earn a PhD in English. I quit after my masters. Why? Because my professors point blank explained to me that if I graduated with a PhD I would be waiting for a professor to die and hope the university didn’t just eliminate their position entirely. And that was TWENTY years ago. When she says her position is precarious she means she has a very very very very very LOW chance of getting a professorship. She’ll be an adjunct at a community college for $35,000 a year. And there’s no shame in that - I’ll be doing that shortly. But I don’t have any student loan debt. Yikes.
I saw a documentary about adjunct professors and some of them with families were receiving food stamps. It was sad.
@@janicehuff1183 yep. It’s part time pay with no benefits for full time work. A total scam. But it’s hard to say if it’s worse than the way they take advantage of graduate students.

Caleb walked on eggshells for this one.

It really bugs me that the guests never say thank you when Caleb says he's giving them his course for free
I noticed that too! It's like she wanted to show up for the program but is unwilling to change anything or grant any concessions in her spending
I think it has to do with how and when he gives them the course. He makes the offer at the beginning when they were super defensive and follows it with a hard plug. If he did it at the end like “here’s you budget, (plug corse) I’m giving you this course for free to keep on track” I think people would be more thankful
