Kris Massey stood at a jeweler’s counter last month, hoping to sell a couple of her grandmother’s gifted pieces to possibly cover some bills.
Even though Massey, a 57-year-old nurse practitioner, makes six figures a year, her financial situation has grown untenable.
Years of fast-rising prices and a recent monthslong bout of unemployment had taken their toll.
She worked two jobs from 2012 to 2023, but a second job is not an option after extensive back surgery.
Her retirement was drained when she was out of work. (CNN)
People are really hurting financially!
We would think a nurse practitioner with a six figure income would be immune from today’s prices.
Not so!
