Is 'Girl Math' Economically Viable?
A viral TikTok trend. What do you think?
Move over standard economics lessons, and Girl Dinner. Girl Math is now a viral social media trend in vogue. Rationale: cash is not real money. Spend until you get free shipping. Everything is an "investment."
Some critics interpret this trend as irresponsible money management, while others think it's financially savvy.

Dibs
'Dibs' a novel written by Virginia M. Axline. This is a novel of a small boy named Dibs in search of himself. Dibs needs to learn who and what he is in perspective the place he holds in his family, school and the community. The first time I read this novel was part of a Play therapy course in a Master's Counseling program. Some chapters are short, and some are of medium length, but it could be read in one sitting if your time permits. Actually, I have read this book a few times and there is always something to learn even for adults that are parents, teachers, and anyone who wants to help children grow.

Another example of 'Girl Math' is using your airline miles to pay for flights. It is justified; especially when they are close to expiring, as you would hate for them to go to waste, and (luckily enough) you want to, or need to travel anyway. On the other hand, using your credit card to pay for goods that you do not want in order to earn these points is a form of false economy.
Spend until shipping is free? No thank you, lol!
