    There are lots of brilliant people in the world. The problem is they have to work to pay bills just to have an average life. My husband is one of them. People always tell him you could easily be rich / you are very talented and smart / why do you not own your own business? / how do you know all the things you know? Etc.

    We aren’t connected people. We’re regular people who have to work to live just like everyone else we know. My husband has done incredible things that have benefited others because he’s always had to work for someone else.

    Fuck billionaires.

      Yep. So much wasted human potential.

      Fuck billionaires, and their rigged game.

      I’m certain if I hadn’t fought depression and sucidial thoughts for the most part of my life I’d be in a better position now.
