Was on my own at 18 with nothing but a high school education. I got no help and wanted none.

I am where I am because I worked my rear end off. If I can do it anyone can, but most who started out where I did won't because it's to hard. Anyone who has and has done better than me, that's awesome!

There is NO excuse for anyone to be poor in this country, I've been in third world countries where those folks who I do have empathy for got nothing and zero opportunity. Here opportunity abounds for those that are willing to do what it takes to succeed.
