I graduated from the BS in Accounting in April. 500+ applications later, the best job I could get was a $19 an hour customer service representative job.

I don’t know if I should just give up on accounting. I can’t get any job that is even somewhat related to accounting. Bookkeeping, accounts receivable, payroll clerk, etc. You name it, I can’t get it. I’ve even applied to accounting internships and I can’t even get those. I either get rejection emails or I don’t hear back. I feel like I wasted my time.

Thought experiment: what would you do if you woke up one morning and suddenly owned 100,000 SCHD shares?

What would you do with your investments and life if that happened?

Heidi is the only one on the Hills who did not grow up in wealthy SoCal. She’s from a small town in Colorado. How much did that have to do with her insecurity and eventual plastic surgery downfall?

I mean, Heidi’s family had some money from the restaurant business, but they didn’t have anywhere near the kind of money that girls like Lauren, Lo, Audrina, and Kristin had. I feel like this could be why she was such an easy, vulnerable target for pressure to get all that surgery. SoCal is an area that can make you feel like you’re never “enough” unless you have the kind of money and/or looks that they have. It’s not like Crested Butte, Colorado, that’s for sure.

Can someone spend their entire lives doing nothing but getting rejected from jobs? Is it possible to just…go your whole life never getting a job, until the day you die?

I wonder if that’s possible.

How are you affording to keep pursuing your acting career?

Do you have a very flexible and lucrative second career, that pays for all the expenses associated with acting and lets you audition whenever and wherever you want?

Heidi always seems to be struggling with money. I thought she made plenty of it.

I just watched this podcast she was on, and she made several comments to the effect of, we couldn’t afford this and that, needing a mortgage, etc. Didn’t she make plenty of money from her resurgence of her music on TikTok? And Spencer is loaded. Where’s it all going? I know L.A. is expensive and all.

I wish I had bought BTC in the early 2010s. I didn’t even know what investing was back then. I never feel like I’m doing enough.

Besides continuing to buy, I guess there’s not much more I can do.

Has anybody here tried to build a career in the tech industry and is now living in poverty? Any CS grads unable to find a job?

The tech market has been so brutal these days.

Did the show go downhill when Lauren left?

I feel like in the beginning, the show was about trying to build a career in fashion, in addition to navigating friendships and relationships. When Lauren left, however, it became all about fights in bars and petty drama.

How difficult would it have been to get a job at a place like People’s Revolution in the late 2000s, compared to how easy this show made it look?

I would think to get a job like that, you have to be a trust fund kid or nepo baby.

What exactly was Audrina’s job title at Epic Records? I know it was fake, obviously. What would it take to get a job like that in real life?

That would be a sweet job if it were real and attainable.

I really need to stop reading about the rich, in the hopes that I’ll be inspired by something they did. I never learn anything from them. These people do nothing but make me feel worse.

I need to get over these people.

Stevie goes to bed at 8 in the morning. That is hardcore. Man, I could never do that. I’d be a wreck the next day.

She went from going to bed at 3 or 4 in the morning to now going to bed at 8 in the morning. She joked awhile back that she needed therapy for that, or she needed someone to hit her over the head. She seems to have delayed sleep phase disorder or something.

Taylor Swift is the best businesswoman of all time. Other artists can really learn from her. She’s just so good at “the game”.

She doesn’t have the best voice. She’s not the most talented. Decent songwriter at best. But holy freaking hell can she market herself. She, or whoever’s managing her, needs to write a freaking book.

Why can’t the brain just…not be depressed, without needing a freaking antidepressant? I wish I were just normal and didn’t need these things.

I mean, if you need them, it’s fine, don’t get me wrong, but I wish I didn’t need them.

So, what can I do to be just like the rich parents of these Laguna Beach kids? They inspire me. What path should I follow to be like them? Haha

If I want to become a Laguna Beach rich person like Lauren’s parents or Kristin’s parents or Jason’s parents, what do I need to do? I’ll follow the instructions. :)

One thing I don’t envy about famous people—they’re expected to literally look like they once did…forever. And if they don’t, they’re ripped apart to shreds online. I wouldn’t like that.

That’s one of the only things I don’t envy about them. Like, why don’t you look like you did 25 years ago? Um, because it was 25 years ago? Sheesh. Definitely don’t envy that. Despite their enviable bank account…sigh.

Why did Hanson pretty much fizzle out after Middle of Nowhere?

I know everybody made fun of them back in the day, but they were really talented guys, especially considering their ages back then. Whatever happened to them?
