Does anybody else see no point in splurging on luxury goods at the moment? Don’t get me wrong, I still love a bit of Cartier and Dior, but what’s the point when we can’t really go anywhere?

Me! I don’t see a point in shopping 🛍 if I can’t have a joy of showing it off.
My credit cards are collecting dust. The only things I shop these days are shares and education courses.
And you know what, it actually feels good.

Of course, Chanel will not go on sale! It’s was a cruel joke on my side. I finally got certified on CA employment law, also I took an online course from Harvard Business school, since Covid is a good excuse to take online courses from top universities.
I’m even thinking of taking online executive MBA... I could never plan it because my company wasn’t ecstatic about all the PTO time I needed, but now it’s also online...

- we have a “Fishbowl Live event” where we (practicing PMs) can discuss what we have seen work / not work/ brainstorm solutions for someone with a specific problem.

The idea is to provide multiple peer perspectives, and hopefully something useful

Kind of seeking validation here but also happy to take feedback. Is 22 too young for luxury goods? I’m obsessed with handbags. Like literally.

Idk what’s wrong with me🧐but I’ve been feeling super antsy and dissatisfied with life that I seek thirst in binge shopping, or even spending hours looking at handbags. Fyi I’m really not spoiled, most of the bags are hard earned and I consider myself to be ambitious
