I went and looked at it...appears I was the first viewer (?). Did you even view it? Is this your video?

My thoughts, other than ROFL ("...there are wild animals out in the country..."), it appears the young lady - after blowing $200K from her dad - finally realized that life costs money, and that WORK is the way you get that money. So she had to go back to work once the windfall ran out.

What she's now seeing, I grew up knowing: "You should live on less than you earn". Well, no kidding! It took her to age 36 to figure this out? Luckily, she has a nice house she can sell and take the profit. Hopefully, she will do better this next round. Most people never learn these lessons, so I guess she's going to do OK if she follows through with it.

She's a lazy slug. It's the antithesis of self-sufficiency and preparedness. Those of us who live the survivalist life and have the survivalist viewpoint are on the road to greater and greater wealth, independence, and satisfaction. The slug doesn't like working; we never stop.

You should read some of the threads here if you are interested in becoming independent of control. There are failures but there are some who live very pleasant lives. This how we have fun.

She doesn't like working every day. Things start breaking on your new car after two years. What is she doing to it?

she will probably wait until someone else to fix it, or wait on uncle sugar to pay her to get it fixed.
