    I married a trust fund kid and then got saddled with his credit card debt after he dumped me.

    Got to go on nice expensive vacations, ate ridiculous food on the top of Harrod’s in London. Now I’m making pillows out of old t-shirts because I don’t have a mattress.

    The big lesson I learned is that it actually does not matter how smart, talented or hard working you are. It’s about having rich family.

        I feel like Salvation Army pillows are going to be gross and hard to clean - might pick up bed bugs. Thrifting the stuffing/pillow forms and sewing them into t-shirts makes something quick and comfortable.
