The escapism movies & tv shows provide can be so fun, but it can also set us up with some pretty unrealistic ideas about money, finances and our lives...

From starting out in our 20s like Legally Blonde's Elle Woods or Friends' Rachel Green, to looking for stability in our 30s like Fleabag and Insecure's Issa Dee, to job salaries for writers like SATC's Carrie Bradshaw and teachers like New Girl's Jess Day, to apartments like Friends' Monica Geller and Emily in Paris, to trying to revamp our looks with a makeover like The Devil Wears Prada's Andy Sachs and beyond, films and television shows give us a lot of fun worlds to escape into but also provide us some kinda nonsensical ideas about money and how much of it we're "supposed to" have at different points in our lives. Of course, movies & tv sometimes being unrealistic is a part of the fun! But it can also make us feel bad about ourselves when we realize that we're not measuring up to those ideas, and even influence us to make some not so wise decisions. So in this compilation video, we're taking a look back at some of our videos on what movies & tv got wrong (and right!) about the cost of makeovers, housing, and life in general, plus the unrealistic expectations they set for our 20s, 30s, and jobs like teaching, writing, being a lawyer and more!
