I interviewed Kat H back in April 2022 and you can read the original interview here:

Money is fake, Harry Styles is forever

What’s changed?

I continue to struggle with my comfort level having honest conversations about money with anyone other than my therapist.

I can’t speak for my friends, but talking about money/finances is hard for me because I hate to admit it, I’m jealous of most people. It feels lousy to say that. But it also feels a little freeing.

I’m jealous of my friends who make more money than me and have a large amount in savings and a good credit score, but I’m also a bit jealous of friends that are barely getting by because they don’t seem to waste money like I do. Which makes zero to no sense, but my brain rarely does.
