Yea, he was honest! He wasn't hiding in denial. It was one of the better HN links I have read.
I welcome posts like this. What I have read too much of is success/fail stories
that leave out the most important details; number one is daddy gave me the money to start my risky business(that business could be anything). Number two is ripping off someone's idea--blatantly(without any remorse, and continue to justify
their slimy behavior until they die). It amazes me just how selfish/sadistic some people, even family and friends can be
when it comes to money.
I have a successful sister who constantly wonders why her mother and brothers never call--it's beyond pathetic, and she doesn't have a clue to why there's no one left. Actually, she knows, but the denial is thick. We grew up poor, so I know that feeling of desperation, but screwing over people repeatedly--adds up.
I don't know this guy, but at least he was honest. To guy's
who don't have a rich family, or a license to steal; if you
make money--it seems like late 20's through your thirties, hang on to it. Don't throw it away on living like Rapper. It will eventually dry up for so many of us.
I know it's hard. You have hormones that literally shape your view of reality. Those hormones will go down. That woman you are so trying to impress will change. If you have a fear of death, that fear goes down as you age. I'm not giving advise. I just releate to this guy's financial journey.
