When I first stepped into “adulthood,” I expected freedom, excitement, and independence. What I found instead was a mountain of bills, a maze of responsibilities, and a never-ending list of expectations. That rude awakening is what inspired me to write Adulting Is a Scam: The Unauthorized Manual for Everything Grown-Up.
This book is my unfiltered take on the reality we all live but rarely talk about. I wanted to write something different from the usual self-help books that promise happiness in ten easy steps or a “secret” formula for success. Life doesn’t work that way. Adulting is messy, complicated, and sometimes downright absurd. So why not call it what it really is—a scam?
In these pages, I take you through the pitfalls of modern adulthood: crushing debt, financial illusions, toxic workplaces, and the constant need to look like you have your life under control. I write with sarcasm, humor, and brutal honesty because let’s face it—sugarcoating won’t pay your rent or fix your burnout.
But this isn’t just about complaints. It’s also about awareness. I believe that once you strip away the illusions, you can actually start living with more clarity. I talk about the importance of financial literacy, setting personal boundaries, and learning to laugh at the absurdity of it all. These are the real skills of survival—skills we should’ve been taught in school but weren’t.
I’ve lived through the grease, the grind, and the quiet desperation that many adults carry behind their smiles. I know what it feels like to question whether this is really what life is supposed to be. Writing this book was my way of saying: you’re not alone, and no, you’re not crazy for feeling this way.
Adulting Is a Scam is part satire, part survival guide, and part lifeline for anyone navigating this impossible stage of life. If you’ve ever looked at your paycheck, your bills, or your endless responsibilities and thought, “Is this really it?”—this book is for you.
