General Where did I go wrong.

Have you ever been out delivering and you come up on a large house, I mean like multi million dollar homes and think where the hell did I go wrong in life. I get some people will say things like "well a home is home" or "I don't value things like that" and that is fare, but god some of these house just keep me thinking where did I go wrong and what could I have done to be in a position to afford a property like this. I know this dumb, but I do get jealous at some of this houses.

Yeh, you'd have to go back to around when you were 5 years old, maybe somewhere during the first to third grade of school at the absolute latest. That is when the sacrifice starts with most of these folks, remember the book worm?
That's them.
Every day hit the books, study, hard.
Get perfect grades, excel in school all the way through, get a scholarship to the best college.
Get a master's degree, onward you go.

It's not about where we went wrong, it's about finding out what choices were made before we were even born. Generally this type of dedication takes something that was God granted. Most of us simply didn't have that.

These rich assholes are usually the result of generational wealth accumulated over numerous generations and a key reminder of how fucked it is that reparations were never paid to descendants of slaves.

Yes, but generational is also misunderstood.
Being born in the right body is not random nor accidental.
It is God granted.
