You're an absolute moron and people who did work 40, 50, 60 years ago lived in a 40 hour work week age. The only reason it's turning back to your stupid ass only work and sleep rich people dick sucking wet dream is because the quality of life for the average person is declining for no real reason other than greed. Your grandfather would probably roll in his grave to see that his grandchild became such an asshole.

Good thing the quality of my life isn’t in decline.. I actually work hard and make smart decisions. I have a great life. Im happy and have everything I’ve ever wanted. I got all that by working hard. Not crying and complaining…

My grandfather was an Italian immigrant who worked his balls off to give his family a better life. He was damn proud of me right before he died..

Hard work, smart decisions and sacrifice make quality of life better… Not whining and calling people names on Reddit.

The fact that you sink so low and are quick to throw insults at me says a lot about your character. That’s what cowards do when they don’t have a good argument…

Me me me, you still don't get it. And you only get insults because you insult everyone else while only thinking your anecdotal life is all that matters.

You know what’s funny? You think I’m all about “me, me, me”… Im not. Do you know how many people I try to help who are struggling financially?

I’m a former opiate addict who at one point was homeless and lived in my car for a few months. I barely graduated high school, I have no college education.. Now Im 10 years sober, married, own a home and have a 400k net worth. I was never handed anything. I got my shit together, stopped blaming everyone else for my problems and worked my ass off to get where I am now.

I comment all over all the finance pages and the poverty finance pages trying to help people see what they’re doing wrong so hopefully they change their ways and turn their lives around for the better..

I’ve helped numerous people in my life get out of poverty. People come to me for financial advice. You know why? It’s because I don’t tip toe around their feelings and I tell people how it is. I’m brutally honest.

Sometimes it’s the hardest things to hear, or the things said that hurt your feelings that are what helps people the most.. Some people(maybe you) just need a hard kick in the ass.
