One thing I like about KN and Hotel Hell is that it makes me feel less bad about being crappy with managing my finances. Like I might be dumb for not putting my money into good investments or whatever, but at least I’m not hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt
Rich people are fucking terrible with money it’s infuriating, especially when there’s people who could make $20 go a long way. I understand the bourgeois reaches a certain point where money is so abstract they stop understanding how much it’s worth. Like if you’re making $2 million a month in dividends and rentals, you can’t conceptualize food having value because it’s easily available to you.
But then you have dumbfucks like Musk blowing $50 billion on a shitposting website. Or Trump can’t keep a casino open. Or whoever came up with that stupid juicer pod thing and got a ton of money from venture capital. Then there’s the petite-bourgeois you encounter in everyday life who dreamt of owning a gym/restaurant/art gallery/boutique/etc. and consistently fucks that up because they have no life experience or actual skills. Just fail kids blowing their trust funds on the dumbest shit you can think of.
Or whoever came up with that stupid juicer pod thing
The juicero founder is a comfortable millionaire with a succesful company selling seeds and a 900 dollar “sprouter”. The CEO who ran the thing and brought the ridiculous thing to market now runs a private equity firm.
There are no consequences for the wealthy.
I think a lot of rich people who buy restaurants have no clue about how much work running one is let alone how bad of an investment they are, they just think it’s like a fun hobby that makes money or something. At least one KN episode shows one of the owners literally doing nothing except hang out with customers drinking alcohol on the restaurant’s dime (yeah, I used to watch this slop quite a bit).
