She has a cash flow problem. Complaining about it publicly isn't going to solve it. If she doesn't want a second job, she could be working on something that adds to her skill set and makes her more employable.
Exactly.
As another person opined, she probably has a house too big for what she can afford, furnishings of the highest quality, a car more expensive than she needs, the top of the line computer, top of the line cell phone, clothes to match, gym memberships, yoga clubs, dinners at restaurants, a state-of-the-art 85” flat screen, all cable channels available, vacations to the best places, etc. etc. etc.
When I got married, for nearly ten years, my wife and I got a small, unlovely, 1963 ranch on a quarter acre, and we probably purchased three pieces of furniture in that time, using mostly furniture, tools, and kitchen gear that was second-hand, and we purchased utilitarian level cars with cash, when we could. We paid off our mortgage in half the time by dedicating an extra $100 each month towards the principal on the mortgage.
My wife is great on that. She never “wanted”. Ever. She made do, and was quite happy to do so. Boy, do I admire and love that woman.
I think you are right. This woman has a cash flow problem, I would bet on it.
