lol the high school I went to specifically had a program for getting kids into college. We had a class we took for 4 years prepping us for it, they made us all apply to city & state colleges. Didn't matter, a bunch of people just went because they didn't have anything else to do without a plan. What I call going hungry is having to skip dinner, or simply eating a small dinner, to the point where I was hungry going to bed. I was very skinny growing up because of that, took me. a while to bulk up in college & after.

lol, you're so pathetic. Guess what, they told you that too, you just didn't listen in college. That's why you're a loser now, and you're going to keep being a loser until you learn to make good decisions.

"special college prep classes" yeah it was literally a regular public high school. No application needed, no test scores, just a regular public high school. If you spent more time paying attention in school and thinking of your future you would've gotten the same info I got. Instead you're a loser in what, your 30s? Probably working some dead end job or for the government? Here's a tip, go look into some high paying careers you think you might find enjoyable, go back to college and study a related major, and get a job in one of those fields.

I commented because I saw someone jealous of someone else's success and responded accordingly. I don't really care about anything else you said, but I did grow up in poverty and get out. I grew up really poor, didn't have the same experiences as most of my friends growing up, even the ones who were also on free lunch in high school (80% of my school was on free or reduced price lunch, it was an inner city high school). You just can't believe that someone can pull themselves out of poverty because you're so used to blaming society and others for your failure that you don't want to think that maybe you could be to blame.
