Mom: "I grew up with nothing, your grandparents didn't give us anything, yet look at how much I've built [they have like a few hundred thousand to possibly 1 mill USD in assets], why can't you do the same?"

And funny thing is she also admitted that luck is part of the equation, but then still shamed us anyways...

Like she often points to my cousin around my age that apprantly is doing some bussiness stuff overseas and made millions in profits...

And like

Oh this is funny:

"Look at NYC! An IMMIGRANT BECAME MAYOR! [she's talking about Mamdani] You came here at 8 years old, why can't you be just like him?"

😭

Idk mom, Mamdani's mom seems nicer than you... maybe that's why... lmfao

I'm so sorry to hear of what you and your brother have been going through. It's not your fault, it's not his fault, it's not the fault of so many other countless young adults who have far fewer opportunities.

I, and many other older folks, are rooting for you. Hang in there and go easy on yourselves.

You are our future.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
