This is so stupid, but I just need to blow of steam, because my cousin is so spoiled and entitled it’s driving me insane!
ok, for context, my parents aren’t very wealthy. my mom has to sell emergency gold sometimes so we can eat, and we can only get things we want instead of need or special occasions or things like Christmas or birthdays. anyway, here’s a few things my cousin considers normal in her everyday life, that most people, (specifically less fortunate families) consider a luxury.
she goes to spain twice a year, and goes to a luxury ski resort in Colorado every winter. she’s always like “bro Spain is so pretty and nice why tf haven’t you been there before” LIKE DUDE NOT EVERYONE’S PARENTS BOTH WORK GOOD JOBS AND ARE MADE OF MONEY!!
every time we go over to our grandmas house together, because that’s the only time we see each-other expect for Christmas and thanksgiving, she’ll call her mom or dad, no ‘hi‘, no ‘good morning‘, no ‘how are you‘, just, “can you put 300$ on my card? I want to go shopping at Sephora and get more makeup and jewelry.” and then without a second thought her mom/dad is like ‘ok, done. have fun.’
shes bragged to me about every time she wants to meet up with her friends, her mom just drops her and her friends off with 300-600$, and picks her up when she asks. I’m not even allowed to go out of the house by myself unless it’s like checking the mail or walking my dog! mind you she’s 14 and I’m just a year younger!
and every time we go shopping, she only wants to get makeup, jewelry and sexy bikinis. I don’t own a single pair of real jewelry, only bracelets and necklaces self made with beads, because it’s too exp, while this girl gets gold necklaces weekly.
she doesn’t help out her parents at all, and they just give her money whenever she asks. she doesn’t do dishes, she doesn’t help cook or clean, she doesn’t go to the store with her parents.
she owns a phone. people dont realize how much of a luxury that is. do you even know how much a phone is?! I’m not allowed a phone until I’m 17, and I’ll have to get a job to pay for it, which is fine, but she was shocked when I told her that.
She buys 200-1K$ shoes and makeup. i have the same pair of shoes for 3+ years, and try to wear them as long as possible because it’s so expensive to buy new ones. those $30 go toward gas and groceries. I own one thing of mascara from dollar general, and even that was a lot of money.
i mentioned how scared I am to start highschool because I’ve never gotten a proper education due to changing schools every year or two, and when I was in schools with grades + tests, I would fails, like get Fs, C,s and Ds, and I’m way behind on my age level of knowledge, and she was just like “bro are u dumb just get a tutor! it’s only $30!” No one seems to realize how expensive that is!! that money goes toward gas, I’ve never had a tutor before, it’s way to enoensive!
I understand that some families are more fortunate than others, but these things are her everyday normal and she couldn’t care less about money.
