expensive things worth the $$$ (as a 32 yo brand founder in nyc) Rent: $7100/mo (2 br) I split it with my husband. We use it to the max: WFH, hosting, gym in building... Egg freezing: $12k Did this when I was 28, best decision ever. My employer at the time paid for most of it Robot vacuum: $1.2k Both my dog and I shed like crazy 😩 worth every minute it saves me from vacuuming Microblading: $1k Saves me 5 min everyday on my brows. I only need to touch up every few years Custom frames: $150 It adds up but highly recommend framing a piece of work you're proud of my sunscreen brand It's a privilege to afford these things, but I also grinded for 7+ yrs building my brand while working in tech Growing up, I was taught that spending = bad. I've learned that it's okay to spend on things that will open up more opportunities. I want more women to see money as a tool to bet on ourselves ❤️

Growing up, I was taught that spending = bad so unlearning that was the biggest unlock. Ultimately, money is a tool that gives us more opportunities, and I’m proud of how hard I’ve worked to afford these things #PersonalFinance #femalefounder #wealth #moneymindset #nyc
