Ace Family is the quintessential case study about how important a basic financial education is, no matter the income level.

"2016, so ten years ago" ruined my day.

One of the keys to building wealth is simply learning not to want so much. These types have no way of ever learning this.

People never think about the ongoing costs of owning a mansion or a supercar (taxes, maintenance, insurance, etc.)

they're not influencers, they don't influence shit. they're content creators

As a kid, I wanted to live in those big, fancy mansions from 'The OC' as an adult. Nowadays, I just want a place that's safe and affordable for a family of 4.

Once you treat influencers like Reality TV or Wrestling, it all makes perfect sense.

Jesus, this is such a hollow mode of existence. Just maximum consumerism and the shallowest of lies to maintain status. I don't envy these people at all.

The bank was stupid to give the Ace family a $10M mortgage loan in the first place.

What bothers me the most is more the 'lie by omission' of people who have achieved some level of financial or physical success while advertising some sort of method to get there, while never fully divulging the full financial picture that allowed them to do it.

The classic "fake it till you make it" minus the make it part.

Fake sets for fake content for fake bot views. The internet really is dead isn’t it.

I’m your age and I have no fucking idea who the ACE Family is 😅

leaves 9-5 to be an influencer roleplays working a 9-5

@ThePowerRanger 1 day ago

There have been so many streamers that have accidentally shown how much they make on live stream, and then immediately denying that they make that much. And they try to downplay that earning by saying stuff like "oh, I don't actually make that much" or "this is before taxes" and they're making like a million dollars a month, so even after taxes they'd be making more than a years of income for a lot of people.

Influencers have to fight with audience attention spans, and not everyone just wants to see how big and awesome their lives are when they're worried a bout feeding themselves and kids that week.
