I like to think I am as well, never been on a benefit or out of work my whole life. When I say "lazy" that casey clicked on, I meant lazy as in I grew up with a family, the loves, he was laid off when I was in my teens, he was around 40, he chose to stay on a benefit. The dole, unemployment. I still shop where I grew up and see his grandkids on the same benefits. Third generation. To me it's criminal. My kids are all achievers, a teacher and a business development manager. He learnt from me. He's on obscene money but worth every cent because he has good people skills. I've never met anyone that has a bad word from them. I think if you achieve better than you had growing up, you have done well. My best friend growing up had a father who worked for himself as a sparky. My friend had everything growing up where I had nothing. I always wanted what he had, so I set out to get it., goals have always been set by myself. Btw my priveliged friend growing up is also a sparky, but achieved not a lot. Just got married recently and has two young girls. He's my age 63.
