I understand your point, being bitter doesn’t help. It’s very hard to move on though when I’m dealing with the consequences of a rich kid who has been handed a lot unearned. I worked for seven years for a family owned business. The owner screwed over his own daughter (my boss) to promote his other daughter to a better position. She became my new boss and proceeded to target me forcing me out of my job. This is not my imagination. It was verified by others. Fortunately I had saved up enough money to tide me over but it has been a bitter pill (pun intended) to swallow. Her own sister (who she screwed over) said she almost feels sorry for her because daddy has given her everything and she doesn’t really know how to do anything for herself.
I really enjoyed your post! You nailed it when you pointed out how bitterness towards rich kids doesn’t really solve anything. Instead of wasting energy on envy, it’s way more productive to focus on our own paths and goals. I also liked your take on the privilege discussion; it’s all about recognizing how different experiences shape who we are.
So, here’s a thought for the community: If you had the chance to trade places with a “rich kid” for a day, what’s one thing you think you’d learn that could actually benefit your own life? I’m curious because it seems like a lot of times we focus on the negatives of privilege without considering how understanding their world might change our perspective or even help us level up.
Don’t agree with your premise that parents have a right to hand everyrhing to their children past a certain point.
Why? It’s their money. They can do whatever they want with it isn’t it?
Who paid you to make us pity the rich lmao
A lot of money not enough so they need pity too?
Hahaha yeah, now we gotta pity the rich too.
“Oh pity John, he is soo rich and most probably he is having depression looking at all the options he have in his live”.
Come on man, you write-ups are damn good and I know you are uplifting the “illiterates” but this piece, feels hmm….
