Can we talk about people who ask for financial advice then argue with every answer?

Overheard a friend at lunch yesterday complain about credit card debt, then shoot down every suggestion like "cut your streaming services" or "skip takeout for a week." If you already know all the answers, why are you asking?

My cousin Sarah did this exact thing last month - asked me how to save money then rolled her eyes when I mentioned meal prepping. I told her my own trick was freezing my credit card in a block of ice, which honestly looked ridiculous but worked for about a week until I chiseled it out. Guess we're all just looking for that magic solution that doesn't require actually changing anything, myself included.

Freezing credit cards is just delaying the problem. People ask for help but don't want the real answer. Meal prepping saves money but takes effort. Nobody wants to hear "spend less" when they're looking for a cheat code. We've all been there.

Had a buddy do the same thing last week. Drove me nuts.
