“Your generation needs to stop buying avocado toast and Starbucks and you’d be able to buy a house!” It’s the infamous line we’ve heard from our beloved elders in response to valid complaints about the affordability crisis..but is it warranted? The headlines keep saying “people just need to budget better,” but the math tells a different story.

Black women, in particular, are doing the same (or more) work with fewer financial results. If you’ve been wondering why everything feels harder, this is why. Take a look, save the resources, and let us know: What’s the biggest financial shift you’ve had to make recently? How are you adjusting?
