In Love Is Blind, one of the major conflicts in Amber and Barnett’s relationship dealt with their finances. Amber revealed that she “works to live” and not the other way around, which is how most of us want to live our lives. But Love Is Blind made it look like Amber takes it to an extreme — hopping from job to no job, or home to no home, enjoying life as she goes.

However, in reality, she’s much more of a hustler. Although she had $20,000 in student debt (who doesn’t?) and just one credit card, that by no means reflected a dire financial situation, nor did it mean she didn’t have a job. On Love Is Blind, her job is listed as “Ex–Tank Mechanic,” and on her Instagram profile, it says “GA Army Guard." Indeed, it's been reported that Amber served in the Georgia Army National Guard before she joined the show.

Amber revealed after Love Is Blind streamed that she was actually on hiatus from work because she was injured and dealing with some worker’s comp legal issues. So despite her coming across as unemployed on Love Is Blind, Amber was very much employed.
