I'm not surprised someone who had it handed to them would think the way you do. Hell, if I fuck up that badly with my daughter she could grow up to be just like you (in which case I will have failed as a parent.) See, here's the funny part - I'm proud of what I accomplished too. I'm quite happy with my life, and I'd say that's the point of it all. I just recognize that life is not as simple as you're making it out to be where hard work automatically equals success. Success can come with very little work and, on the flip side, you can work your ass straight into the ground and have absolutely nothing to show for it when all is said and done. This bullshit about how all you need to succeed is a little spit-shine and elbow grease is just that: pure, undiluted bullshit. You need only look at the people who work three jobs just to tread water and stay where they are to understand that. Troll_Police_ posted... But I tell you what: since you're gonna say you didn't earn what you have, why don't you give it to the less fortunate? Or is that bleeding heart of yours just for show? What makes you assume I don't? I mean, given what I've posted so far wouldn't you think that I'd be open to giving to charity and happy to do so? I guess I could start talking about that too, but then I'm guessing I'd trigger you and that other guy about me "bragging" again. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer. Kill 10 men: You are a monster. Kill 100 men: You are a hero. Kill 10,000 men, you are a conqueror! <cite>darkknight109 posted [p:893717074] in Is the Ame...
