ruthless ruckus :
her:"I wanna be treated like an adult"
me: ok, I'mma give it to you in stages so you're not overwhelmed.
fi, here's the rent, food, transportation, clothing and utility bills.
lemme know when you get those under control, up next to add to those are taxes, credit card and student loan debt, adult and underage dependent expenses, and unexpected emergency expenses (head's up, teeth, immune systems, bones, vascular systems, etc, sometimes they work, and sometimes they don't, you need to make sure they work and never break down. because breakdowns are very expensive, and unexpected breakdowns are even more expensive)
but don't worry, the last phase is easy. that's unemployment coupled with your friends, relatives and dependents turning their back on you after all you've done for them when you're at your lowest. it's easy because you only have 2 choices, either start over, or get used to a downward trajectory
