Confessing Your Financial Sins? - Money Diaries
"Money Diaries, Where Millennial Women Go to Judge One Another’s Spending Habits"
This is kinda funny, young women making six-figure salaries going online to confess their financial sins, and then being shamed by commentators...but they want to be Green Wizards in their heart of hearts!
"The kindest comments I’ve seen were in response to a woman living in Juneau, Alaska, who raises her own chickens, cans her own vegetables, and, during her weeklong period of journaling, walked to pick up takeout during a blizzard. “I would love to hear more like this!” one commenter replied. “Best diary yet!” another gushed. If the series is to be believed, we would like young women not merely to get their financial lives in order but to enter an enlightened state of ascetic living. Meanwhile, the diarists themselves, whether affluent and urban or not, add caveats and justifications for any irrational-seeming purchases, as if to beg the commenters in advance for forgiveness."
LOL! Can you imagine them reading the stories we tell here?
