This reads like she was living outside of her means and recently was forced to return to her financial reality, and is framing it as a choice she made lol

Mah, hailed by Forbes as a "wildly successful serial entrepreneur" who launched her first six-figure business in middle school, has built a business empire worth over $500 million. Despite these accomplishments, the 32-year-old describes herself as a “struggling entrepreneur.”
"Does my life sound like a fairy tale? When I hang out with aspiring entrepreneurs in college, they say they want my life. But my best friends who know me best almost always say they would HATE my life," Mah wrote candidly in her post.
She revealed working a minimum of 60 hours a week and grappling with what she calls "accomplishment dysmorphia." Mah also shared deeply personal struggles, including the pain of losing an ex-boyfriend to suicide and her ongoing battle with comparing herself to others.
gee I wonder if the boyfriend killed himself due to ending up with a relentless shark-eyed clout chaser with a soul so dark & empty a thousand universes in full bloom could never hope to fill it 🫢

"Rich person that has everything the working class suffers to obtain, culturally appropriates the experiences of the working class to benefit themselves."
Rich people will steal anything.
Nice. I’ve been planning for an extended period of being homeless, starving, and working on my interpersonal skills by relying on strangers for basic needs.
Oh, wait, not planning, I meant bracing. Silly me.
So brave 🥹
Not a joke tho
"entrepreneur playing the long game" ok fuck right off Jessica, in my country we say "stories made up in the beer garden"
No one should have this privilege to begin with. Society should work to create a livable experience for everyone instead of constantly making comfort and stability an exclusive club.

And, for an instant, she stared directly into those soft brown eyes and knew, with an instinctive mammalian certainty, that LinkedIn clout chasers were no longer even remotely human.

"I like pretending to be poor just like the little people I step on to attain my wealth. It's a great change of pace!"
sometimes i like to strap 4 prosthetic legs to my hips and carry around pine needles in a pair of tweezers, after which i pour molten aluminum into an ant nest
BURN CORPO SHIT

Crazy, when I want to be grounded I just connect myself to the ground pin on my socket.
No.. I am not joking sadly https://groundingofficial.com/
i'm in a community for minimalist shoes/barefooting and this shit is the bane of our existence, every now and then someone joins and starts talking about grounding and it's miserable how few people are willing to firmly call it out as batshit nonsense
people seemingly can't do something unusual without a magical justification, "it feels nice" or "it's what we're evolved for" isn't enough, it's gotta be all spiritual and pseudoscientific apparently.
I especially like that they claim electronics burst into flames if they're not grounded, because the electrons have nowhere to go.
Which, let's ignore the complete misunderstanding of how electricity works for a moment, but if they truly believe the ground pin does something functionally, how do they ignore all the shit that only has a two prong plug?
“It’s no wonder [bad things] rates are on the rise! It must be because of not being barefoot on the grass!”
Yea, not uhhhh all this fucking horseshit.

a lunatic? completely. but this is almost a valuable message to break through to that echo chamber.
Flying economy just for fun?
It is just her humble bragging about being rich by cosplaying as a regular person.
yeah, it's ridiculous - but the core messaging is "money insulates you from reality" and that's something these people need to hear.
She "launched her first six-figure business in middle school" aka. has rich parents and never knew anything she is talking about here
Every "independently" wealthy person under 35 on the Internet.
Step 1, have lavishly rich parents
Step 2, use parents money and business networks to make money
Step 3, brag about being humble while also flaunting your wealth.

"whisper networks of power players" doesn't set any alarm bells off for you? When you see something like that happening, you don't think, even for one second, "everyone in this room should become a fine pink mist very quickly." You don't think that?? You just go along with it and try to get some power for yourself?
PATHETIC
If only she would ground herself in reality starting from the top floor of her skyscraper
I'm just pretending to be poor and didn't lose it all on Tesla futures.
no no see, she's founded three six-figure companies since middle school

I think she wants to cope with her downgrade or something along the lines...
This is on par with the Greek stoics, idle rich fuckers who would deprive themselves of luxuries "for a while" ... and then congratulate themselves for that deprivation when they got back to doing their regular idle rich fucker shit.

So they’re unemployed and pretending that they’re just trying to ground themselves.
