Most people are slaves. It takes only small mistake, if someone doesn't have support, to fall into debt. My son turned out to be autistic, he needed constant support, costly therapy, meanwhile, I couldn't work, marriage fell apart, my parents died and we're in debt, even though we had savings.

Life’s just unfair. We’re just all modern slaves in a modernised society

[@ashleybcookin]

This is so true. 1 mistake can really set you back. People don’t understand the power of having support either.

[@ComradeRachel]

Capitalism is just a flashy new version of feudalism.

I don’t know who will read this, but I’ll get this off my chest for a bit. My Hispanic Dad is currently in $30k - $40k of credit card debt. He says nothing is working out for him, that he doesn’t know what has happened to him, that he doesn’t know how he got to this, that he doesn’t know what to do, and that he WILL disappear one day once and for all giving us a better life on the way (to which I ask: HOW?!) The relationship between my mother and him has clearly been destroyed even if they/he tries to hide it (I know why I say it and it’s not because of debt). Worst of all, his drinking has gotten SO MUCH WORSE claiming that it’s the only thing that “helps” him. I pray to God for the best for my Dad and my entire family; but if there is someone out there who can help us one way or another…..please.

There’s a lot he can do! Has he received help yet?

sorry for your situation. Dave Ramsey has some great videos about debt that also touch on the fact that the root of getting into debt is of a spiritual nature. Fixing spiritual and emotional issues that drive us to overspend will help and heal us, I'm a 100% sure. Praying for you and your family.

I just found this channel 2 yrs after your initial posting. And economy is significantly worse. Not a millennial and still found this wisdom super helpful. Thank you for sharing! Keep up the great work. I'm not sure how I tripped on this channel but found it helpful enough on this video to subscribe!

Really good topic here! My one friend always stressed out because he "didn't have any money." He had no debt, but he had a lot of money in investments and savings, the issue was he had no cash and the amount of stress that caused him was wild. Also, journaling your spending is a great tactic. Lets you know exactly where you're spending your money and on what and helps you be more mindful of your purchases.

[@reallifepsych3309]

Right. Journaling also helps because putting yourself through the process of writing out questionable purchases will help you from making them in the future.

[@abovethemiddle8408]

Such an important video. I must admit money is a big stressor in my life but I am trying to get more comfortable with my current financial situation. Thanks for this.

[@reallifepsych3309]

Right, having a strategy is step 1.

[@Sargeantize]

This doesn't do anything for people making 30 to 50k per year

[@donterranove8723]

Thanks -- used this in my econ class at a HS in Calif. Financial literacy unit. We had a terrific discussion too.

[@nazemabdelfattah5115]

Great video , I learned a few things. I am a family medicine physician and never heard a talk on the psychological effects of finance and debt until your video.

[@PakhtunBae]

This videos helped me alot thank you ❤

[@sarahdloveskittens]

I love this so much Alexa! 💗 I really love the point about redefining happiness. I always try and be mindful before making an impulse purchase and decide if buying the item will truly make me happier and improve my life. There are so many temptations out there, but it's a great feeling when you can say no to junk and meet your savings goals! 😊

[@reallifepsych3309]

Yes, this comment made my day!

[@reallifepsych3309]

Thank you for the support!

[@moneyversefin]

Great stuff!! Took lots of notes 🗒 Thank you!

[@leeboriack8054]

Great talk, well done! Millennials got a raw deal, raised in an affluent age, where growing up striving was erased. Add largest number of unprecedented of single parent homes. Plus the uncharted hazards of internet social media.

[@darkflamethrower]

Thank you for making, needed this

[@nickyassimos7299]

Thanks Nicky!

[@matthewscott9745]

I wish I had someone like you in my life

[@clothandleather2838]

And on that note. You owe me $120 now for our 1 hour session. Oh? You came to therapy because of depression due to financial instability? Sorry, i need to get the next years worth of battle passes. See you next week! 😃

[@TePokuru]

Thank you 😊

[@tayberfurbeck2336]

People that commit suicide are 8 times more likely to get into debt? Does that mean they can apply for credit cards in hell? Just joking but I think you may have miscommunicated that statement haha.

[@chandlersmith1215]

Money kills I agree. 1 person can make 100000 in a day and another can never afford a home. Completely stupid idea.

[@CuteHarris]

If you're dead , your debt owner wouldn't able to take back their money that you lended

[@TshengisileNdlangamandla]

How do u save if you are left with nothing every month coz your are paying debts and expenses i think the only way is to get support other than that i don't see a way out except God's miracles.

[@Bella-ke7pr]

It's bad when you have a millionaire in the family that doesn't even offer to help with the financial situation.. She invited us to her house once during Christmas. That's about it
