My whole childhood my mom told me i was special and lucky. She bought me clothing and also convinced my dad to buy me stuff and send me to an English school while my older sister was not.
I was the first in everything until my younger sister was born 12 years later. oops! Things started going down hill for me since then. Ok! at least girls still though i was cute until after 2 years, when my face started developing acne. Suddenly my luck with girls also ran out. Ouch!!
Here's a list of unlucky events that took place after that:
Putting in contrast my best friends life:
Me?

Here's a list of unlucky events that took place after that:
- My parents lost our home and we had no where to live. Dad managed to find a shack next a nearby church and asked the priest if we could live there
- My mom was fired unfairly and later found out that her employer had never registered her as an employee. employed over 10 years, she was dismissed and was never given a cent.
- My dad retired from his factory job and managed to build a tiny home out of his little retirement
- My cousin suggested he invested in a stupid business idea which went south in less than a year
- I left for a new city with less than $5 to support myself
- My older sister Gave birth to 2 kids, had no job and the father never paid child support
- Dad was a heavy smoker so he went ill from cancer, passed 2 years after and mom followed 6 weeks later from a ruptured pancreas.
Putting in contrast my best friends life:
- His mom was a nurse
- His dad a police officer
- My friend dated the cutest girls in school
- They had multiple cars in their yard
- He was sent to paramedics school and later found a good job
- He's dad bought him a BMW
- He's mom bought him a house
- I make more than 6 times his monthly salary - that's on his best month selling cheap websites with his baby mama
- Im expecting my first kid/ he already has 3 kids from different moms
- I buy him beer all the time cos he cant afford beer
- I eat steak almost daily/ he eats tin fish with pasta
- I own 2 rental properties with 25 unit studio apartments/ he still has done nothing with the house his mom bought for him, not even a paint drop... the last time something was done there was when in paid for he's electricity wiring to be installed for the whole house.
- He quit his job a few years ago cos a witch doctor told him he would die in a road accident while driving an ambulance
- He lost he's BMW for keeping it too long at the mechanics/ I am soon buying a 2018 C200 Mercedes coupe as my first car (cos now i can afford it!)
- I am clear from dept/ He owes the bank tons of money he borrowed to impress his girlfriend
Me?
