You go broke trying to look rich, wow

You got a high paying job, you celebrated, got excited, drained your pocket, and now it's empty.

The saddest thing is you went broke trying to look rich when you could have actually been rich.

Why? Because you cared so much about how you look before people that you neglected what your true condition was.

The pay was not enough for the lifestyle but you went ahead and did it.

You could feel it while you were doing it that it's getting harder to keep up but you went ahead.

Your friends looked at you and raised their hands in salute that you have made it in life. They saw your expensive car which you put a down payment that choked last month's salary and was waiting to choke the next.

You got a girl that was hot good for you. But unfortunately she liked money and she knew you liked her too much to let her go. She decided to take advantage of that and spend your money for you.

Did she invest so it can benefit the two of you? No she did not. She bought a wig she knew her salary can't afford. At least she's on a safer side because it's not her money, it's yours. But anyone capable of doing that has already choked her own money and needed someone else's money to choke as well and thank goodness you made yourself a sacrificial lamb. You told yourself it was for love but your pocket begged. You didn't listen.

Now it's dead, your pocket is dead and if you don't get help, so will you.

You learned the hard way, Mr Impress everyone.

Now what? Did you have to go through all of that when you knew from the start that this was not going to work?

You tried convincing yourself that you got this. You'll just work harder. You couldn't work harder than you spent. Most seems to leave faster than it comes. If only you had set up a system where the money comes more than it goes, you would have been today what you faked yesterday.
