[quote=Anonymous]OP here - I think people misunderstood my immigrant comment. I would have done things differently and I will give my children advice to push them forward and I will to the extent possible set them up to succeed. I worked college jobs (ha, not Harvard) at restaurants and Jack in the Box to have money to help my family. I applied to Harvard bc that’s all I knew as “important school” when I didn’t have someone counsel me on options or transferring etc. You all have to realize I’ve been at least two steps behind - a friendly colleague had to explain what a TSP is how stocks work to me on a random day one year into my first job. Just garbage like this I’m disappointed in myself I wish I would have done better in the interview, on applications, had been more thoughtful and listened or researched more. Thought I’d get better but I keep failing so I’ve clearly not learned and still missing things. [/quote]
