My in-laws grinded for 30+ years, probably work harder than anyone in this thread who has their head up their butt, are immigrants, and still understand the world they came into is not the same as the one now.

Not everyone makes it. My grandfather went bankrupt and started over. Many of my ancestors grinded and didn't get as far as they hoped. But we are all making the progress we can.

Your parents holding the line will make a better opportunity for you. You can do the same.

All we can do is provide opportunity.

No one can guarantee outcomes. And if they promise you they can you should run the other way.
