    We are diving into the secret struggle most Americans face-financial stress. It's no secret that people are behind on their bills and money is tighter than ever. Join me as I break down the shocking stats, like how 50% feel broke despite earning $61k a year, and the surprising term "choiceful" spending. Plus, discover why the upcoming interest rate cuts might not be the magical solution some hope for.

      ⁠​⁠​⁠@@Noworries-PU7ye Same😊. Happy retired single woman here. Child free. Debt free. Not broke. Thank God I have never been materialistic and always a saver. Living frugally and am a minimalist(consumer marketing won’t work on me. I don’t need their crap 💩). In spite of today’s uncertain, B.S. inflationary times(corporate greedynomics=capitalism, consumerism and materialism), our family of retirees is gratefully blessed, thriving and enjoying a well earned comfortable retirement. The love of money is the root of all evil. This world 🌎 is upside down 🙃. In this insanity, right is wrong and wrong is right. Hence the Godlessness in this country: Sept. 6th US Capitol attack, tRump’s clown show, school and church mass shootings, etc. We are in the last days: Wars and rumors of wars, pestilence=Covid, MPox, etc. I trust in God. Praying 🙏 and keeping our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ close. God bless everyone.😊

    I became “choiceful” years ago when I saw how spending- both gov and personal- was a freight train flying out of control. No one was saving, gov hand outs, nothing is free, ever. so my spending became purposeful, no frills.
    And about work, I never followed the dream of what do I want to be when I grow up?..instead I followed the money and positioned myself to get jobs that gave me a paycheck. Oh yeah, the magical paycheck. They actually work. In fact I’ll call them amazing, I’ve loved every single one of them I’ve made over my 55+ yrs of working, and I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up.

Don’t need to impress your neighbor or others. Don’t need to spend your money on what everyone else is. Learn to be happy with a simpler and thankful and grateful life.
