Flying economy just for fun?
It is just her humble bragging about being rich by cosplaying as a regular person.
yeah, it's ridiculous - but the core messaging is "money insulates you from reality" and that's something these people need to hear.
She "launched her first six-figure business in middle school" aka. has rich parents and never knew anything she is talking about here
Every "independently" wealthy person under 35 on the Internet.
Step 1, have lavishly rich parents
Step 2, use parents money and business networks to make money
Step 3, brag about being humble while also flaunting your wealth.
“I made this all myself. If I can do it, anybody could do it”
If I wanted to see someone bragging about their accomplishments, I'd just look at this:
I'd even posit that this otter has contributed more to society than anybody on Linkedin.

You'll never live like Common People
It is just her humble bragging about being rich by cosplaying as a regular person.
Pretending to be rich yet grounded while actually being neither.
It's her justifying to herself that whatever success she previously had and just lost was a choice, not a failure on her part. Clearly her business took a turn for the worse.

This is on par with the Greek stoics, idle rich fuckers who would deprive themselves of luxuries "for a while" ... and then congratulate themselves for that deprivation when they got back to doing their regular idle rich fucker shit.
quietly nudges an old tent and sleeping bags out of sight
Yeah who would want to deprive themselves of luxuries for awhile, and then reminisce about the experience later!?
😐
There’s a difference between that and thinking you’re on to a philosophical secret while being blind to the all the time living conditions of almost every human being.

This reads like she was living outside of her means and recently was forced to return to her financial reality, and is framing it as a choice she made lol
So they’re unemployed and pretending that they’re just trying to ground themselves.

I find the cooking one weird, because the food you cook for yourself is usually the best. I know exactly how cheesy I like my pasta sauce, and how big I like the chunks of chicken sliced in my curry, and what ratio of spices I like in my fajitas. I'm not even that good a cook. I can't imagine having enough money to want to stop doing that.
But how are you supposed to enjoy that food without an obsequious NPC to cut your steak for you? Is it even eating without an envious audience?
The food at the really fancy restaurants is really fucking good. I'm a pretty good cook and baker, and if all my time was taken up with something that pulled in over $1MM a year, you bet your ass I'd sup at such schmancy-ass establishments ... for a few years until I can just retire, then start cooking again with all that knowledge under my belt.

You might not be that good a cook by your own admission, but some people can't cook at all. They just never learned it, and they'll just burn the food.

"Rich person that has everything the working class suffers to obtain, culturally appropriates the experiences of the working class to benefit themselves."
Rich people will steal anything.
Enough ragebait for the day, and I just woke up…
"whisper networks of power players" doesn't set any alarm bells off for you? When you see something like that happening, you don't think, even for one second, "everyone in this room should become a fine pink mist very quickly." You don't think that?? You just go along with it and try to get some power for yourself?
PATHETIC
What really matters is actually feeling that superiority when you get on a subway with the peasants.
Economy for fun. Mmmm, kinky. Make sure you have a safe word.
I just checked LinkedIn. She's a real person and this is a real post and there are 83 other real comments from her contacts agreeing with her and praising her. WTF.

BURN CORPO SHIT
Entrepreneur, your parents are rich, got it. Linkedin influencers, is there a more useless idiot?
Nice. I’ve been planning for an extended period of being homeless, starving, and working on my interpersonal skills by relying on strangers for basic needs.
Oh, wait, not planning, I meant bracing. Silly me.

No one should have this privilege to begin with. Society should work to create a livable experience for everyone instead of constantly making comfort and stability an exclusive club.

Ironically probably written with genAI
I mean, getting rich people to reduce their waste output isn’t the worst thing in the world.
Definitely better than the “wE aLl HaVe ThE sAmE 24 hOuRs” hustle grindset nobody-wants-to-work bullshit.

If only she would ground herself in reality starting from the top floor of her skyscraper
This would be a lot more meaningful if she did that old trope and straight-up switched places with someone for the day. Eat what they would've eaten, travel how and where they would have traveled, stay where they would have stayed, and have the same amount of daily spending money they would normally have had (and if that number's zero, welp, guess it's good she's such a hard worker. I'm sure she she'll be fine.)
Dear Ms. Mah,
It's nice to want to understand what it's like to be a poor person, but you know what would actually help poor people? Sharing a bit of that excess you clearly enjoy. Come back and brag after you do a bit of that, then maybe we could talk.
Sincerely,
Economy-flying, home-cooking, subway riders.
Crazy, when I want to be grounded I just connect myself to the ground pin on my socket.
No.. I am not joking sadly https://groundingofficial.com/
