Well, now you know she isn't broke but just likes to mooch off friends for a good time with them so she can afford splurges on herself.
As they say, fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
OP never said this friend mooches off her (that was another PP) just act she sobs about being broke. The thing is, the friend may in fact be broke -- OP doesn't really know. Even assuming OP is correct about what the friend is saving, it's a useless data point without know if the friend has debt, if she is saving for something necessary that many people don't have to pay for (like IVF, or an adoption), if she comes from a family with zero financial resources. Heck, even something like whether her work/job provides her with a 401k is relevant -- maybe that 2k a month is her total savings, including for retirement, and thus not actually disposable income.
If the friend is not asking OP to buy things for her, the fact that she says she's broke or that she can save money, or that she splurged on this concert ticket, is all irrelevant.
