Income isn't stable and isn't enough to be considered fuck you money.
A million in 6 months, I think if she could keep up near that for a couple of years, she could invest in something safe and live off of the gains.
Which part of "not stable" did you not understand?

Your first message to me was fine, and my response was even keeled, simply explaining why I said what I did. But then you tacked on “crazy” in your follow up, which seemed a bit unnecessary. Now you’re calling me child. Idk….
Do you need a hug?
it's plenty enough to be "fu" money, though.
