Transcripts
now to a woman who has been failed by
the education system her parents Society
we keep hearing about how smart and
Savvy gen Zed and Millennials are sure
they can name 40 pronouns but how is
their financial literacy how are they
with the simplest tasks watch this and
try to work out whether she's for real
or trolling us with my credit card I Max
it out to 4,000 um what do you mean you
Max it out Max it out or Max it out Ma
so my Max I got confused with the credit
debt and credit limit so my parents got
me a credit card and I ended up getting
a max credit limit of $8,000 so I could
spend up to $8,000 that's what that
means
right so I I would use it and I would
take my boyfriend we would we would just
started dating we would go out is 12,5
00 on it now yeah well when I looked at
it last yeah um me and my boyfriend me
and my friends we would go out and I
like oh I'll pay for everybody I got it
I'll I'll spend the money don't worry
about it it's just a credit card so I
would I would pay and pay and pay and
pay and then I called my mom one day and
I wanted her to be proud of me so it's
just like hey I've got $4,000 credit on
my credit card and she's like credit
limit or credit debt I was like what's
debt and she's like oh that's bad I'm
like oh oh really okay um so it's $4,000
debt then she's like that's bad why did
you do that I'm like I thought that was
good she's like no your credit limit at
the time was uh it was 8,000 so I was
like okay well the credit limit's 8,000
that's good right and she's like yes but
you were $4,000 in
debt I I don't know what to say really
what is debt okay now Co broke many
brains uh you see these folks even now
wearing masks Outdoors wearing masks in
cars by themselves in their own car they
smell of hand sanitizer you can smell
them coming and they like to scold their
friends and family check out this woman
a few weeks ago I found out that the
person that I love most in this world is
no longer masking their entire family
including four small children have
stopped
masking in and yesterday I text her and
I said hey I I can't get past the fact
that you all are no longer masking
like with everything that's happening in
the world right now with Co with RSV
with measles with everything that's
coming back not masking is wild Behavior
to me like I Community Care is important
to me I need to know that the people in
my life care about their health and the
health of the people around
them to which I received a three and 1
half page
disertation justifying their
behavior I wouldn't need three pages are
limited to three words get stuffed loser
but let's hear more from this woman who
responds to her friends who have told
her it's not logical to keep little kids
masked
forever my personal favorite was um
paraphrased You couldn't possibly
understand because you don't have
kids it's illogical
to expect children to continue masking
and stay in lock
down so I responded and I said you know
as I already stated it's your choice to
make I'm sure you will do everything you
can to keep your family
safe the best thing for me right now is
to take a step away from this
relationship I love you all but I have
to take care of myself first and
foremost I hope you
understand and she say sure I can't
force you to
stay and I'm telling you this because I
know I'm not the only one out here who
is dealing
with struggling with people in their
lives that they care about very much
that are no longer taking mitigation
efforts I can't have people in my life
that make me feel unsafe and they live
on the other coast but that's not the
point the point is if I had the option
to be around them right now I couldn't
because I wouldn't feel safe and that
means something to
me it's becoming impossible to figure
out what is real and what is satire
remember she started that rant by saying
that this person is the person she cares
about most in the world and she's
choosing to cut her out of her life
because she's not masking her little
kids on the other side of the country my
