The Status Debt: Why Buying "Nice Things" Keeps You Poor

Описание: Let’s be honest—we’ve all felt that sudden urge to buy something expensive just to "feel" a certain way, or worse, to impress people who don't even like us. In this video, we’re breaking down the Veblen effect and the dangerous cycle of status debt. We live in a world that practically begs us to "fake it 'til we make it," but what if that very image is what's keeping you broke? We explore the temporary dopamine hit of a new purchase versus the long-term stress of living above your means. It's time for a reality check on the middle-class trap and why true financial independence starts with killing the urge to show off. Let's talk about building real wealth, not just a flashy lifestyle.
