[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the dud of my immediate and extended family. The only one who doesn't have a bachelor's degree, the only one who doesn't own property, etc. I do work, but have gone for 2-3 years at a time out of work. My successful older sibling once lent me $5,000 but I paid him back.

I'm just not somebody my parents can brag about in any way. While I don't think my brother is embarrassed by me, he's not proud to introduce me to people either. [/quote]

You are just as important.  Use your gifts.  Money is evil.[/quote]

Apply your talents! Don’t waste them! [/quote]

I don't have any talents that are useful in a consistent way that could earn me enough money to buy an apartment. [/quote]

You're not a dud in the sense that's being used on this thread, to describe siblings who simply choose not to work and instead sponge off parents. As long as you're working to the best of your abilities, you deserve respect. Not everybody needs to own property.[/quote]
