Because I'm not sure she'll see the parallel and I'm not sure why you guys think you need to comment on her money management, about which you know absolutely zip.
What do you know about her finances? So she posts about annoying name brand stuff. I wouldn't have assumed that she is working "7 days per week until year end" because she wants the bonus cash, but maybe it is the 9 years I've spent doing transactional stuff and I get that we lack the flexibility to decrease our schedules when work gets really busy, typically at the end of the year. But in any event, why is it your business? You guys are really trying to "help" her with some problem you've convinced yourselves she has or are you just trying to sound superior about your own spending patterns?
I hate judgmental assumptions about people's lives and preaching condescension, whatever the source.
But if it is all meant to show her how annoying her assumptions about bnb have been, good show.

People use financial discipline or being "frugal" as a way to try to appear morally superior, more disciplined than others.
I will never live it down that I chose to cast assumptions or aspersions on poster's lives here--but on the other hand, it has them gunning for me big time and I'm a little confused why. If I am so obnoxious "hare brained" and dumb and vapid, why care what I do?
