Hey, now. That's not fair to you or your challenges, man. I have no doubt that you've made impressive progress in overcoming what you've got in your way, and I don't even know you. This guy could've inherited wealth and done fuck all otherwise. Be proud of what you've accomplished and never compare your victories to others' social media posts. Keep killin' it! 🤘🏼

Yep, or they could be in a crapton of debt. Either way, it's not a foregone conclusion that they are "doing better".

We've seen what happens to folks who have $10M in properties and $9M in mortgages and the market turns south. All that "success" when the times are good is fake.
