  1. I’m not a billionaire, nor millionaire, shoot, not even a thousandaire but I am comfortable. I understand the original story very well as the granddaughter of two janitors (both grandmothers) who didn’t have higher than a high school diploma. I got my MBA, and my only daughter is in grad school now, 4 years after graduating from high school. When she was 2-3 years old, both me and her dad were active duty, swapping her in the parking lot at my job because we both did shift work. She wasn’t old enough to see that hustle. When I retired after serving 20 years, divorced and move to another state, my transition was extremely difficult and I haven’t work since. To her, because she had a life better than a lot of people, in private schools, driven in nice cars, living in a nice subdivision, never lacked anything, I believe she thought life is easy when you don’t work and everything given for free. Sounds familiar? (She admires aoc) I don’t think she really understood what the word retirement means. That I had to work hard for 20 years so I don’t have to now. Right now, she is ungrateful and we no longer have a relationship because in will not accept her saying she is oppressed. I do not plan to leave anything for her. But I will say, I did teach her financial management skills, something I learned and paid attention to because of seeing my parents struggle. If she don’t want to use what she learned, it’s on her. But she was taught how save, invest, pay bills on time and buy with money you have and not put it on credit.
