  "account": "Vivian Tu, known as Your Rich BFF on TikTok and Instagram, believes that everyone can adopt a habit from the wealthy to improve their financial dealings. According to Tu, rich people are willing to negotiate more than others and are unwilling to settle for less. She pointed out that Americans tend to shy away from bargaining, with 95% of US adults avoiding it in at least some situations. This reluctance may stem from people believing it's not worth the effort, feeling powerless against corporations, or lacking the practice in direct negotiations. Tu suggests that the best time to apply this approach is when purchasing commoditized products, like a home or car. Instead of accepting the first price quoted, she recommends getting multiple quotes from different providers and then comparing them. While Tu doesn't endorse being rude or unreasonable, she advises being assertive but also kind.",
