RE: What the fucken fuckety fucking hell?

I think that many young people in Hive lack this kind of experience, and for some reason they think that everything is going to be fine, always.

Yeah, the foolishness of youth or inexperience I guess. The concern here is that people seem to have lost their ability to learn these days, want instant gratification and daily to see past their immediate needs. They'll learn though, the hard way.

So many people were ruined in the GFC, it was a terrible time and I know people who are yet to fully recover, some never did or will. Sadly, I think we're on the way to these troubling times again and people are even less prepared than they were back then. People will find out just how bad things will get in time...I've been preparing for it for years.

It's good to hear you were able to recover but 20 years, and I reckon a lot of hard work too huh?

Sort:  

The truth is that the little I may have is earned with a lot of effort and without anyone's help, which fills me with pride. I rectified a youth thrown away by working during the day and studying at night. And, I see with sadness, that as you rightly say, there are people who are going to learn their lesson the hard way. And I am not very optimistic about the times to come.

You set a good example for others to follow and yet how many would? The fact you're proud of your efforts is a good thing, you deserve to be.

Thank you very much Galen, my life is full of mistakes. But I have also shown myself to have the capacity to fight and the will to rectify. I think this is related to the values I learned from my family. I thank you again for your words, thank you very much.

I've made mistakes too, and will again, but people like you and I learn from them and that's what counts.

In this I am in total agreement.
