SCRIPT:

What are you willing to go broke for?

It’s hard not to feel inadequate when your idols are out here smoking j’s using 24 karat gold rolling papers…or buying their daughter $85,000 barbies…or selling plain, white t-shirts from their clothing line for $120 each.

I have a thing for button-ups. What normal human being needs 57 oxford shirts? I did the math, and that’s nearly three month’s rent!

I recently downsized my life and now everything I own fits in one room. As a result, I live in a smaller space, pay lower bills and have money stacked for a rainy day.

I’m not here to tell you how to spend your money, but I am encouraging you to stop looking at your neighbor’s paper as a measuring stick for your success. I’m karlie hustle and that’s how you hustle and grow.
