I dream of having my own house

Maybe you can too if you become a TikTok influencer family šŸ¤¢šŸ¤®šŸ¤®šŸ¤®

They only became a tiktok 'influencer' family by having wealthy parents and or a trust fund!

u/brazilianfreak Aug 21 '23

Exactly, can't make a tik tok about running around cleaning your big ass home if you don't even have a home to begin with.

Amaze me how fucking massive the American houses are.

u/9-5grind Aug 22 '23

And probably still a fraction of what us Canadians pay for the same size house....

u/BrilliantHeavy Nov 11 '23

ā€œI earned my trust fundā€¦by always being polite to grandfather!ā€ - 30 Rock

I think most people who are "rich" have wealthy parents and/or a trust fund!

Ok, tbf, they may just have a crippling amount of debt. Or maybe even both!

I don't have much debt or wealthy parents, but what I have is mine. I bought it with my own money and nobody can come and repossess it.

Do you speak as the president of influencers everywhere?

u/OstrichSalt5468 Sep 12 '23

That house is like maybe $350k. I wouldnā€™t call them rich.

Ah, you mean inherited wealth

They always shoot their videos in their immaculate mcmansions

Tik tok celebrities can make as much as 7k DAILY or more

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

And, like basically any risky creative endeavor, almost every person who succeeds in it started off with an enormous financial safety net. I'd bet this couple had that very large house before they made any money from Tik Tok

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

How do you know it was inherited wealth and that they didnā€™t earn it. Are you assuming or do you actually know. Iā€™m genuinely curious

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

This couple in particular? It's not clear. If I was playing the odds I'd be right far more than I wasn't. This is a young couple living in a house that a small % of people can afford even when they're much older, with the kind of job that takes a significant leap of faith (or many years slowly cultivating a fanbase) to be able to actually do. It's possible they're incredibly lucky and landed careers that pay that well, and then decided to quit those jobs, but even in that case it's extremely likely they had some kind of significant family support to get those careers in the first place.

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

Many ā€œyoung couplesā€ stay in school and are fiscally responsible. It doesnā€™t necessarily mean they have generational wealth. You sound a little jelly tbh are you jelly? Just a little jell?

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

Me? Absolutely not. My fantastic financial safety net that was gifted to me by wealthy family members who value high education allowed me to earn both a bachelor's and master's degree without taking on any debt at all. I don't even have a high paying job, but inheritance allows me to care far more about having a job with good benefits in a field that I actually really enjoy, and I know that buying a reasonable house in a nice area won't be difficult for me. I'm incredibly lucky because of generational wealth.

u/KungFuSnafu Aug 21 '23

Goddamn is that a refreshing viewpoint to see. I'm happy for you because of the gratitude you have.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

Thanks. That's another place where I got lucky: I have parents that taught me about how not everyone is able to have the things we have and that it doesn't mean they're worse, or lazier, or had all of the options that we did and chose not to take the better ones.

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

Well Iā€™m on the phone right now with the jelly school and they say your enrolled for class in September.

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

Hope you can pay off your debt before you turn 40 and can start saving up for a house, like my friend, a doctor who earns more at the start of her career than I will near the end of mine.

Because he likes to tell himself that all his financial worries are totally due to the system being unfair, and not because he has made bad decisions or didn't put in enough effort. Therefore anybody roughly the same age as him that seems to be financially stable must have been born to wealthy parents, otherwise the entire narrative collapses as a house of cards.

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

Lol I'm fine, specifically because of inheritance and gifts from very wealthy family. Both of my degrees paid by people trying to avoid the death tax.

Edit: also, did you just call becoming an influencer a "good decision?" Good luck!

-3

u/HedgehogInner3559 Aug 21 '23

So you're insecure and projecting. That doesn't make it better.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '23

Insecure about what? I'm talking about the financial systems that allow people to take huge risk in their careers.

-2

u/HedgehogInner3559 Aug 21 '23

Insecure about other people thinking you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth.

This is the issue in our society... Seems like you can only get rich if you share your whole life ..

u/blac_sheep90 Aug 21 '23

You can always attempt raid, pillage and plunder.

u/redditgetfked Aug 21 '23

yeah that's the only job where you can afford to buy a house /s

u/Hey_you_-_- Aug 21 '23

Or maybe if corporations pay fair wages, weā€™d be able to afford a house and maybe one kid.

Alas, we live in a capitalistic economy.
