Don't Have Money for Rent or Groceries? Skip the Daily Latte & Weekly Mani/Pedi

You know those women who complain about never having any money but seem to lead a life of luxury?

The ones who buy their fancy $8 coffee every morning, yet complain there is no food in the house.

You know the ladies I mean.

They always have their nails freshly done from the salon, but complain they have too many bills they can't pay.

These women are always buying expensive makeup or accessories at upscale boutiques.

Always ordering some new frugal item, anything they want it seems.

Yet they are always asking to borrow money or looking for handouts.

And, it's like, you want to tell them, if I spent money on those things, I would be the most energized homeless woman with the prettiest face and fanciest nails of all the women who live in boxes on this street!

Yes, splurging on yourself sometimes is absolutely necessary, but things like rent, groceries, and children (if you have any) need to come first. If you don't have money for these things because you put luxury items first, you need a priority check. Or you need to at least stop complaining about your self-created, first world, financial woes on public social media accounts!

Derailing Vs. Getting on Board with Theories of Tiffany Valiante's Death

This post is about "Mystery at Mile Marker 45," the first episode in season 3 of Netflix's Unsolved Mysteries, which tells the story of Tiffany Valiante, a recent high school graduate with a promising future, who was suspiciously struck by a train after disappearing from outside her New Jersey home in July 2015. It is assumed one has already viewed the episode before reading my thoughts and opinions on this case. SPOILERS will be given! Fact or Fiction? I have seen several people discussing supposed facts that were left out of the episode, alleging Tiffany had stolen from her parent's bank account in the past, that CPS visited regarding abuse by her mother in the months prior to her death, and supposedly an axe recovered as evidence near the scene was lost by investigators before testing. Although I did find her autopsy report with the little bit of searching I did, I only saw this rumored information on gossip websites or other people talking on threads how they ...

Whoever is trying to bring you down is below you; you are above whomever is trying to bring you down

Not sure which version of this quote I like better, but I do believe it's a valid statement. If someone is trying to bring you down; whether it's by spreading false rumors about you behind your back, publicly attacking something of yours, or even just giving you constant criticism to your face; I think most people would agree then they are clearly below you in their moral standards and personal ethics, not to mention their levels of integrity and kindness! And, if someone is more focused on bringing you down instead of on their own work or personal goals, it probably does indicate you are above them — or at least, that they believe you are somehow ahead of them and thus, view you as competition to eliminate. Whichever way you look at it, it's unfortunate there are people like that. Too many people turn things that shouldn't be into a competition when it would serve us all better to help and support one another instead — or at least to just conc...

"It's Good to Know Who Hates You, and It's Good to be Hated by the Right people"

I had to think about the second part of this one a bit, but I do concur. \ Haters tend to hate people they feel intimated or threatened by, in competition with, or envious of. Usually, there is no real reason for their hatred, other than those people are different than them; whether in looks, personality, interests, or any other qualities. In acknowledging that, if people are hating on someone who tries to be kind and respectful to all, somebody truly altruistic in their helping of others, it is fairly safe to conclude the haters lack some — or all — of those genuine qualities in themselves. Therefore, the good person is being hated by the "right" people in that they are hated simply because they are not hateful like the haters, nor would they ever want to be filled with hatred like them in exchange for their not being hated! This not only reveals the haters for whom they really are, but also confirms the good person the "hatee" is. Thus, in this case, it is ac...
