Oh how Social Media is used as the greatest tool to showcase the facade of a great life manifested through edited Instagram posts of people "living their best life" in identical fits all from Fashion Nova.
Today, we'll be talking about Social Media and the great pretenders of the Internet. Nah, I'm not bitter or "bad-mind" as we like to say in Jamaica, just brutally honest. There I was in the Do You Boo group on Facebook when I saw a post about a young woman who admits to not living her best life (according to Social Media). She expressed how she lives one life on Instagram and how much she struggles in her actual real life to afford the fake life she created on Instagram --she works 3 jobs just to keep up and is always late on her credit card payments because of the number of outfits she buys weekly just to be "Instagram Goals". Be mindful that this person lives in a first world country (USA) and I live in a third world country (JAMAICA).

I hope that the young people today will live their truth and live their real lives rather than living a manufactured one on the Internet where they have to constantly have more stuff to keep with everybody else. If you do make a living on Social Media, all power to you --it's not easy, be smart, be strategic and most of all ... SAVE!
Are you living your Best "Social Media Life" or your "Real Life"?
