And look at him rubbing everyone's noses in it... as if his position was achieved with nothing but hard work from his part. Uh huh.

Here come the usual excuses, oh he was just lucky, etc etc

No it was hard work and planning, I could have done what 90% of my mates did and I would still be where they are.

I paid 165K for my first house and that was a hell of a lot of money, as a matter of fact it was more than I could afford at the time, hence working 70-80 hours a week in two jobs and often having no money to even put fuel in the 25 year old rust bucket I was driving, buy hey I was just lucky I guess

The difference is I made my own luck and I did what others were not willing to do, now I am reaping the rewards of this and people not willing to do what it takes whinge and whine about how hard their life is, I hear it all the time...
