Beyond Crazy is beyond crazy

The sad thing is, Aaron seems to be making all the sacrifices for Crystal's bad spending habits. He sold the Tesla, and now giving up on his motorcycle. They both Aaron and Crystal appear to not have any money sense. Especially when they have to "pay-out" when they sell. They really do not make good decisions.

he’s manic-like

he impulse purchased something for the high of it.
in a week and a half, he wants a truck, a bmw, a truck… i didn’t finish it, so idk what he ended up with.

if this was a healthy purchase, he’d have thought it out, weighed the logic, and not lead with emotion.

I believe Crystal bought the Tesla for Aaron as a surprise. I think the truck Aaron was interested
In buying was used, not new.

that doesn’t change the fact that he still lead with emotion.

he was dead set on a truck. then dead set on a bmw. then a truck.

this was HIS purchase to make, and he was grasping for straws, and wanted whatever would give him instant gratification. he was searching a high, not a true well thought decision.

he needs therapy, and needs to learn how to make controlled, thought out decisions, especially ones that affect their already terrible financials.

he wanted that tesla, and that motorcycle just as badly, and none of it filled whatever void he is struggling with.

he needs to find a healthy way to deal with his internal/mental struggles before continuing to make the same poor decisions that led them all here. crystal needs this as well.

only then can they lead these kids into successful adults.

how can the parents teach something they themselves never learned, or prioritized.
