I grew up between two worlds Now I'm £18,000 in debt
I'm £18,000 in debt. And for a long time, I told myself the same story everyone tells... bad habits, poor impulse control, no discipline. But after reading The Psychology of Money by @Morgan-Housel something clicked that I can't stop thinking about. This video isn't really about debt. It's about identity. About growing up between two worlds a council house in London and upper-middle-class Spain and what happens when your internal baseline doesn't match your bank account. I talk about: → Why some debt is an identity problem, not a spending problem → The psychology of "future self projection" and aspirational spending → Growing up working class in London but culturally shaped by old Spanish money → The £6,000 course mistake I'm still processing → Why financial shame rarely helps and what actually does This is one of the most personal, honest videos I've made. I hope it resonates. 📖 Book mentioned: The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel If this spoke to you, share it with someone who needs to hear it.
