13. I guarantee they will not get a 2nd job

Dec 2019

None of them have that much drive. When I was 28, I had a full time job with frequent over time, averaging 45 hours/week, and still I found a 2nd part time job writing computer programs where I put in 15 more hours/week. After doing the multiple jobs for 10 years, suddenly I had enough money to pay off the mortgage and the car loan. None of my brothers-in-law have that kind of drive. They will just ask me to borrow them money when short. One of them was about to lose his house and I had to give him an emergency loan, which I am never going to get repaid.
