I'm having a difficulty hearing friends, family and acquaintances continue to bitch about just not being able to keep up, bills, expenses and difficulties with income without just replying "The money is broken" and then having it echo repeatedly in my own head hoping I can telepathically get them to understand it, because I've already said it too many fucking times.

It's a common pain I think many of us have been through. I got soooo bored with this conversation, I think it just passed and I still try and offer support. It is a real pain they are going through , try and remain helpful. Our future selves will thank us 🫂
It's often not even trying to offer a solution. Just get them to acknowledge there is actually a problem. They still their 401ks, high interest savings, accounts and custodial investment accounts as safety. 🫤 But you're right. I'm always there for questions and support for the ones who ask.
Oh gawd, that type I avoid like someone with shit on a stick
The cognitive disconnect between saying what you're doing isn't working out like you were expecting in one breath to defending that it's still the right choice is crazy.

yes , I still try to remember it's their choice, mostly i get annoyed and bitter, easier to say than do
