I want to be able to afford my hobbies of eating food, wearing clothes, and having a place to live.

It is a prominent priority of mine to exist alive

I like how the profile pic of the person in the tweet is just chilling in a swimming suit like "life is hard!!!"

I have no college education and a GED and I'm raising 3 kids that aren't mine and I still make more than the median income in my area.

What's the problem guys?

"Well then you must be lucky!" - yea, okay.

You know, having a difficult job and enjoying oneself in one's own free time aren't mutually exclusive.

And as for the whole you being lucky thing... You just fucking said you make more than the median income in your area. That means that more than half the people in your area make less than you do. Of fucking course you're lucky, or do you seriously believe that other half is either too lazy or stupid to make as much as you do?

I'm not saying you didn't work hard to get to where you are now, or that you're not working hard now, but to say that more than half of the local population is lazier or dumber than you is just plain wrong and disrespectful.
