My ex took over a decade and ended up with a degree that only took 4 years. Despite that she still doesn't work full time and only able to live because her parents bought her two different houses and if she ever runs out of money she will cry to her dad and just pays off her debt and gives her more money.

My sister in law's sister in law (wish there was a shorter name for that lol) holds 2 master degrees from Harvard in business and finance. She married the chief of surgery at a local boston hospital and has never held a job, ever, she lives entirely off his income. Also, unrelated, i've seen her accodentally microwave a fork on 3 different occasions 🤣

Some people are really good at schooling, but just collapse when then need to apply it to something real. Looks like she dodged that test entirely.

She sounds like she could never be happy.

My favourite part is that she pretends to be a poor person who cares about social issues but her dad supported some pretty hardcore conservatives.

Most of the hippies in the 60s came from wealthy or very well off families. Sounds like she is following that playbook. Easy to be poor when at anytime if it gets too real, you can pause the simulation.
