I think I could pull that off.
No, no. I think you're right. That's why I said it. I knew it was going to be funny. And I want to admit that I don't mind being the butt of a good joke. And I don't think I could pull that one off. But back to Declan's question. I see so much on social media these days regarding how well... Everyone is doing, and I wonder if I'm doing okay. Oh. I pay $1,100 a month for rent.

I have $900 in monthly expenses, including student loan, personal loan, cell phone, gym membership, and utilities. I don't spend much on food. No joke. Maybe about $750 a month. I rarely buy anything for myself. After taxes, I bring home $2,500 every two weeks. So he's got $5,000 a month he's bringing home. Why do I feel so behind? Well...

I think the first and the biggest reason is because you're spending too much time focusing on other people's big wins. Boom. And so when I'm watching everybody else show off their car, their house, their shoes, whatever, whatever, as you describe, then I know from science, and we know this from neuroscience, that whatever we focus on, that's all we see. Man, yeah. And so all you see is...

Everybody else is crushing it. And I'm over here in West Virginia just trying to make it through a month. And I think that's why you feel behind in the grand scheme of things. I don't think you're terribly behind. And it sounds like you're young. And my partner here in crime, Jade, there's another reason why he feels like he's not getting ahead too. You can see it in the question.

What we can't see in this question is what are his monthly payments? We do know there's debt. Yeah, we don't know. And so if you were to take those monthly payments, and I could take a guess, just looking at that situation, he may have somewhere between $300 and $500 a month, might be more with the car payment.

Okay, good. So my guess is you could give yourself anywhere from a $3,000 to $5,000 raise, not knowing the actual specifics here. That combined with I want to bust it to work. But again, Jade makes the best point here. What's the life that you want? What's the future life you want, not the life that everybody else has?
