On top of that, I also moved to Los Angeles two years ago. So, to sum it up, I’m a broke boy from the struggle trying to make it as an artist. “At least strippers get paid,” I can hear a funny dad saying. I am an artist, which means I am in a line of work that is so notorious for being poor that the job title is often prefaced with the word “starving.” If you were to survey a group of parents and have them make a list of the careers that they want for their kids, I would imagine artist is at the very bottom, right below stripper.

The lifestyle site promotes the series of candid expenditure journals as a resource for, “getting your financial life in order.” Although it might not have had its intended effect, I think the format does have some redeeming qualities. If you’re not up on it, Money Diaries is an increasingly popular column, published by Refinery29, in which anonymous millennial women detail their weekly spending habits in exchange for relentless criticism from other millennial women. Alright, I don’t get paid on salary, but I want this article to be in the style of Money Diaries.
