(6,228 posts)I had friends who are twins. Their dad died at a young age from ALS. Their mom had severe medical issues and was on disability. They started working what odd jobs they could find at 13. Once they could legally get a job at 14, they worked as many hours as possible. They helped make house payments, bought their own clothes, helped buy food, etc.
One is now a physical therapist living in a $500,000 house (average home here is about $130,000) and the other got his MBA in international business from Thunderbird. I call bullshit on your god-like declaration that by me saying they are self-made I am furthering the right-wing agenda.
But you go on telling everyone how right you are and wrong they are. There is nothing more exhilarating than that, huh?
