I Survived Capitalism and All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt by Madeline Pendleton

emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense

heavy tw for description of waking up to learn of a partner's suicide. this was hard for me (it's not the same, but I had an ex who died by suicide and feel a lot of disenfranchised grief about it - the talk about this was done pretty responsibly). this was a really helpful book for me - I don't think most of the advice applies because I am unable to work for the most part, but it's still something I got things out of, both low income money management ideas and a lot of just general insight into how a business like madeline's works, and on the different sort of like... navigating life stuff. I also just generally find her storytelling very compelling.
