I'm kinda torn
On one hand, it's important for "normal" folks to see how the eternally broke think and live. It's important to document this, and to spread it.
On the other hand... Shit, third time on the show? She needs actual help, not advice. She just can't handle her own finances and never will.

What kind of help exists for ppl for like that?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
None. The only things she "needs" are information and willpower. She doesn't even need intelligence, since just doing what she's told without thinking one step beyond that would get her out of this situation. She's been given information three times, and willpower is, in the purest sense possible, a matter of choice.
The only way she could possibly be "helped" would be for her to completely cede control of every aspect of her life to someone else. And not in the "abusive boyfriend" sense, in the "straightjacket" sense. Because being physically incapable of fricking up is the only thing that is ever going to stop her.

Growing up and interacting with people like this is very puzzling because I don't know how to architect society to include them.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
But there's two major underlying issues:
1. Stupid people literally cannot conceptualize how stupid they are or how much more intelligent someone could be. They cannot conceptualize the thought that goes into making things work. They cannot conceive of someone else doing work if they cannot see it. See: every post-colonial African nation that could not even maintain their infrastructure.
2. Not-stupid people are also unable to conceptualize existence with that lack of intelligence. Frequently it is misunderstood as ignorance and they mistakenly believe it is possible to educate these people to achieve a functional level of intelligence. Adapting to the limits of their capabilities is seen as prejudiced.
1 means they are going to be prone to getting uppity. 2 means everyone else is likely to side with them. The ultimate solution is to just pick your own cotton.

One of Jordan Peterson's early things that drew criticism for him was him saying that there are people who are simply too stupid to function in society and need their hand held for their whole life. He would try to come up with solutions for them.

She needs someone to do all her finances for her. Like literally pay her bills and shit and just give her like 200-300 bucks per week for groceries and stuff but otherwise she just shouldn't go anywhere near her bank account. If she's got a bf she might as well let him handle the money, but it seems he might not be much better.

Unironically I think there is an actual case for this, some people are just too stupid or clueless or wired in some obscure way which prevents them from understanding how money works, and it ruins their whole lives, perpetually. But preying on the financially ignorant is profitable for banks in particular, so these idiots won't ever be saved from themselves.

Average IQ in the US is 98.
I legitimately think you can't adult properly if you are under 100 IQ. 100 IQ is supposedly statistically average BTW.
Oh look a map, gee golly, I sure hope I don't notice things

That map is a little sus this study puts Texas in the bottom 10 by IQ while Hawaii is 15 spots higher as well https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8954344/. Mississippi, Louisiana, and California are still full of r-slurs though so it's pretty accurate overall.

I've watched part 2 for this girl, her problem isn't financial literacy it's that she's genuinely dumb. Caleb was trying to explain how she could fix things and you could tell she just wasn't getting it. Stupid people need financial tard wranglers but that will never happen because it's mean to call people dumb and there's too much money to make off them

he is talking about 5x to fast for someone with likely around a 80 IQ. There is no way for her to even have a chance to comprehend him. He would have to dial his lexicon down to kindergarten level, and even then it wouldnt matter, because people like this can't even conceive of a week out into the future. It's a bummer, but some people are just destined for the trash heap of society.

Ok I watched the first video and this fricking r-slurred b-word already got me seething. Like even disregarding how fricking stupid she is, she then goes to say shit like 'I dont wanna sell the car because I worked so hard for it' when she barely paid any of it yet. Unreal that people like this exists. And she hopes to rake in the money at some point in the future as an actress, lmfao.

Did you see the part where Caleb is explaining in the second video about how she should sell it and pay off part of the loan and she gets excited? The she asks well thats great, but like how do i still keep a car and caleb says "you won't because you sold it but then you have much less to pay off for the loan" and she totally deflates. Then she starts to understand why Caleb told her to return it the first time.

This has to be a bit. Like every person he brings on the show is malevolently irresponsible with their money and life choices. Even the most financially irresponsible people I know that have rich parents as a backup plan aren't this stupid.

On a genetic level, all those kids with rich parents cannot be this stupid unless they lost oxygen to the brain or have Downs. This is hereditary stupidity but not even that exceptional. Like 80 iq

So excited for this one. Part 2 was a banger. The moment when she realizes when caleb tells her to sell the overpriced shitmobile to only pay for part of the loan is gold. She even asks why he didnt give that advice last time, and he explains he told her to return it when she had the chance. It's so over for her.
