I was just thinking a few days ago that she’s probably gonna join the billionaire club off rare beauty.
Huh I feel like celebs are becoming billionaires now more than in the past. Can’t think of past celebs being announced as such. I remember this being said of JK Rowling.
But I guess it’s becoming a flex(?) to announce these things cause I’m guessing there are past billionaire celebs but they kept it lowkey (and who know what shady dealings were done 👀). But idk if this a slight response to all the “eat the rich” trend from 4 years ago which granted I always that a fad while others believed some actual change was gonna happen.
It’s definitely become a flex that celebs are actively seeking out or frauding their way into. I don’t think that most of the billionaire celebs are actually billionaires (they definitely don’t have a billion in liquid) but every time I say that, even on ONTD, stans of whatever billionaire celeb jump down my throat so I got tired of arguing lol

looool which stan group?
"ut none of them would ever announce it publicly because it’s considered more gauche to flaunt your wealth in Europe, while to these American celebrities it’s a flex."
Makes sense cause America is built on the American dream of the zero to hero story. Selena technically fulfills that dream given her beginnings.
Since this post is a couple hours old, maybe it’s safe now. I was referring to Rihanna, hahaha. Her lifestyle doesn’t match the amount of money she claims to have - one of the biggest ??? to me is that she worked nonstop through both of her pregnancies. She looked miserable and uncomfortable at times like she had no choice but to work, but she kept going. There are other things I noticed too like her property portfolio not lining up with the amount of money she supposedly has

i don't suppose we could get socialized medicine to replace venture capitalist-funded apps that spy on users and sell their data? or fuck over both the mental health professionals and patients? BetterHelp, HeadSpace... all of them can get fucked.
also all the money people are expected to spend on insurance and they barely cover mental health if at all? 99% of people cannot afford to pay $20,000 or more for weekly visits to a therapist with a PhD.
A mental health startup is a thing that just should not exist. America has the most expensive and worst healthcare compared to similar countries. I hate it here
i have to make an appointment for a diagnostic mammogram and the lady at my ob/gyn was like, "brace yourself, insurance doesn't cover diagnostic mammograms, only screenings."
like... what.
i also have to pay out of pocket for one MRI every year.
At one point I entirely lost my mental health insurance due to hitting my “cap” after a facility maxed it out in handful of months, convinced me I had a problem I didn’t (yay! Thanks for adding to my issues), and then basically kicked me to the curb with no further help offered. The Affordable Care Act nullified that, but… I very much need therapy to deal with my trauma, but from my experience, therapists through insurance are not that great and I’ve had more success paying OoP, but the state I’ve moved to is $100 at least a session OoP and anyone that specializes in the kind of help I need have wait lists. So I’m pretty much white knuckling it and trying to find modalities to help myself. It shouldn’t be so fucking difficult to access quality mental health care.
