Over 70% of Gen Z and Millennials admit they feel compelled to “make weekends Instagram‑worthy,” proving the earn‑then‑burn cycle (source: Deloitte Digital Consumer Trends 2025) Are We Stuck in the "Work-Spend-Repeat" Trap? That FRIDAY feeling... ever really stopped to question it? 🤔 SATURDAY: 💳 We shop. We eat out. We subscribe. SUNDAY: 🛍️ We buy things. We "treat ourselves." We escape. MONDAY: 😫 We're broke, exhausted, and right back on the hamster wheel. This isn't an accident. It's a cycle. It's a TEMPORARY FIX. Not a real life. Fact: 57% of global workers are living paycheck-to-paycheck - ADP, 2025 The way out isn't just a 4-day work week or a better salary. It's finding a "WHY" that's bigger than our next purchase. When our purpose becomes community, family, or a mission (for me, it's climate action), the need to spend just to feel alive begins to fade. Give this article a read and share your thoughts. Are you caught in this loop? How do you find your purpose beyond the paycheck? https://medium.com/@saket-sambhav/why-we-work-till-friday-just-to-spend-on-saturday-and-sunday-and-what-to-do-about-it-dc9d89251901

Living for weekends? That’s just renting freedom. Real wealth is owning your time—every day, not just Saturday and Sunday. Stop trading five days for two. Build a life you don’t need to escape. ( millionaire fastlane)
