You ordered the cheapest thing on the menu and drank water. Your friend ordered three cocktails and the lobster. Then the bill arrives, and someone says the four words that destroy your budget: "Let's just split it."

Congratulations. You just paid the "Friendship Tax."

In this video, we’re breaking down the invisible cost of your social circle. The average American spends over $4,000 a year on social obligations they didn't really choose—from destination bachelor parties to birthday dinners where you subsidize everyone else's champagne.

We often think we’re the only ones struggling to keep up, but the truth is darker: we are stuck in a "Mexican Standoff" of fake affluence. Everyone is panic-spending to impress people who are also panic-spending.

I’m going to show you exactly how to calculate your "Friendship Tax," give you the exact script to say "no" without losing your friends, and explain why you need to start a "Freedom Fund" immediately.

In this video, we cover:

-The Split Bill Scam: Why you pay $73 for a $28 meal.

-The Wedding Industrial Complex: Why being a guest costs $2,000+.

-The "Mexican Standoff": Why nobody admits they are broke.

-The Script: Exactly what to say to decline expensive plans without being awkward.

-The Freedom Fund: How to turn social pressure into financial independence.
