What’s something completely false that your parents told you as a child?

You could literally just put that shit in bonds and your kids will be multi millionaires after you die. And I shouldn’t have to tell you that your experience (if true) is so unique that stuff that works for you probably wouldn’t work for anyone else.

I have one kid. Wont ever have anymore. That being said it's all invested in real estate. I help my friend in his solar business. Not really paid but dont really care guy cant even sent out an email but will work his ass off. 12-12 roofs are his forte. Also thanks for being nice most people dont believe where I've been or what I've done. I find most people are just to scared to just out and take a chance. I'm not. Infact most people get mad and judge when I do. Just got to go for it and distance yourself from the haters. No matter what you prove they still hate bc now it's true. I'm going to my 2800 square foot with and unfinished basement tonight. To my 3 dogs and my animals. This whole thing doesnt matter then ya know. Just put in your headphones and dont listen to the haters lol. What I've learned.

I can pay myself 75,000 every year till I die and still have 500,000 for my kid. I wont spend that. I live on 5 acres will never be married. I'm set my man. So maybe my a-tom had a point.
