People could buy things but whether they could pay for them is a different story 💀 the amount of credit card debt and buy now, pay later (e.g. Klarna) has skyrocketed 😭

Also there’s increasing evidence that the wealthy are the ones driving consumer spending. There seem to be two different economies

I mean it’s not crazy to me but you should definitely only use it if you have a stable source of income, because if you miss those payments you’re screwed 😭 and don’t go using Klarna for stuff that isn’t a necessity. I saw one article where they were saying Gen-Z is treating Klarna like free money 😭

I was seriously hoping people were only using that for groceries when they didn’t have stable income or something 😭

I hate to tell you but I see these irl constantly. It's a status symbol ppl buy because they want to feel like they mean something. Talk about being shit with money.
