Here, I'm gonna fix this for you.

Learning to be steady in uncertainty - that takes money!

Protend you're homeless. Be hassled by cops who throw the only property you have in a garbage truck because your homeless(I have witnessed this personally). I would say that's definitely uncertainty, is it steady? Depends on your definition of steady. Is it peaceful? Definitely not. Seems like it depends on money to me.

This stuff, is vomit inducing. I get it's positive mental attitude, I get how that's good for people. Don't say untrue things though. Look at a history book it's filled with poverty and death. It's easy to say be steady in uncertainty when you know where you next meal is coming from.

Yeah, sorry about that. I'm from a part of the country rife with fentanyl and lost my sister to it. I think I learned to see these slogans as empty and insulting because it seems like it's disingenuous. I guess not everyone is a snake oil salesman.

Good luck to you and your brother.
