| 0:00.0 | So one of the trends on social media, I feel like whenever I open up Instagram or something, |
| 0:09.3 | it's always like, here's what I eat in a day or here's what I wore this week. So today I'm |
| 0:13.9 | putting a financial twist on this trend and sharing what I spend in a weekend. And make sure to |
