She discussed making better financial decisions and investing for the future, which has severely impacted her pocket.

Simone’s revelation comes on the heels of her friend, Shekinah Yon’s disclosure about her own financial troubles.
B. Simone Reveals She Has Suffered a Financial Setback
Simone has gone viral again following the latest episode of her “Let’s Try This Again” podcast. The social media personality and her friend, Shekinah Yon, recently appeared on the podcast, where they discussed her struggles. B. Simone, born Braelyn Simone Greenfield, admitted that her current financial situation was not looking good. She revealed that she was making a new app, which was draining her finances.
The comedian shared that it had forced her to abandon Bloomingdale’s and opt for H&M instead. In the clip Onsite! Obtained, B. Simone was visibly upset and close to tears while discussing the difficult transition. She noted that it was challenging to adjust to the new lifestyle, which required her to create a budget. She said:
“Just my finances. Like the budgeting. You see how I am. Nitpicking every little thing. I’ve never been like that.” She added, “We were in Bloomingdale’s yesterday. I’m like, ‘We have to go to H&M.’ And I notice in me now, just nitpicking. I just don’t have it to spend, the liquid. I’m used to having liquid. And because I’ve invested in this app, in this platform, I don’t have the liquid. I got the money, but not yet. It’s coming. I have it in assets, I have it in jewelry. I’m used to seeing a certain amount in my account.”
Netizens React to B. Simone’s Tearful Revelation
B. Simone’s disclosure about her financial situation garnered little sympathy and was probably the opposite of what she had hoped for. The internet reacted with a mix of amusement, mockery, disbelief, and sarcasm. Others lashed out at her for not being frugal. Someone commented on Onsite!’s page, “Girl!! You should be able to shop at H&M even when you’re “up”! People cant pay rent or buy groceries n u worried about designer.” A second user replied, “And look at the rest of us just thanking God for the air we breath 😂.” A third person remarked, “Girl H&M is too high go to Ross they got cute stuff 😌.”
Meanwhile, some internet users wondered why B. Simone felt comfortable discussing her financial situation with her friend, Shekinah Yon. They noted that she refused to help Yon, who suffered financial hardship for over a year despite assisting others, including strangers.
“Her inability to read a room should be studied,” a netizen remarked. A second person asked, “Yooooo is she having this conversation with the same girl that had to get on food stamps while Simone watched and helped other people. Woooowwww.”
