So are you pissed that you didn't have that silver spoon growing up OR glad that you earned everything you have?

Make no mistake, my mother raised and outstanding human being. I work my arse off, I never stepped foot on a college campus and I own a web development company at 31 years old, I have no debt and I have made more money every year for the last 6 years. I'm on pace to make over 200k this year.


I'm glad that I was not raised with a silver spoon in my mouth. I'm just saying, when we are talking about "having it better" or how such and such just needs to "get it together" I'm just saying that kids from married families often overlook the vast advantages that they have over people that come form single parent house holds.



There are things that I wish I had differently though I wish my dad was around to teach me man shite lol. My mother raised me with an extremely unrealistic and unhealthy view of women that took years for me to get over.
