The latest Caleb Hammer show episode has a guy earning 22/hr working in a warehouse supporting his wife that doesn't work. Tons of irresponsible high interest debt, buying 8 balls of cocaine, still smoking, vaping, and he's able to pay back the debt without declaring bankruptcy whilst also putting away a few hundred a month into savings

    It's always the smoking in those shows.

    Like it's super important to cut back some $100 a' month habit to negotiate cutting several millions off the debt just by talking to the creditors.

    Of course smoking is bad financially, but the whole point is really about punching downwards.

    Participants need to bend down and quit smoking, vaping, fast food or anything really just so they can be told so and do what is said, like some sick submissive role play.

    Meanwhile, actual rich people smoke, vape and eat at restaurants all the time. Because they "can afford to", because they're like fucking heroes just for being rich.
