I remember the days when he used to brag about how quickly he could steal cars and being in a gang and shit, and he used to go in and out of police station all the time.

He knocked up some girl before finishing highschool and had a screwed life in his early 20's. He then dumped her, used his strong oral skills and wooed a girl from some rich family, and climbed up the ladder. Every one knew he was a delinquent dropout, but somehow he ended up going to UK and got himself a MBA and is now a bankrolling bankster. He even beat breast cancer just a couple years ago.

This moraless deadbeat scumbag used to be the sad joke and shame of our families, only to turn out to be the most successful winner out of all the cousins of my generation. Life is not fair...

I mean, if he had gone through life as a law-abiding hard-working citizen the entire time, we'd be totally accepting of his achievements, but his turnaround was so drastic that his success made us feel bad and doubt why we tried so hard to play by the rules when this a-hole broke all the rules and still got it done just fine. I know we were supposed to be happy for him for turning his life around and shit. I guess we were just butthurt.

I envy him and am unhappy with myself for not being adventurous and expanding my horizon like he did.
