This is great story. However nowadays it’s impossible to buy any real estate with “normal” jobs

I'm an electrologist (permanent hair removal, one hair at a time). In some ways it's boring and tedious, but we get domamine hits all day long as we remove the hairs. Not many of us that do it nationwide compared to say cosmetologists. I get to be an unknown super hero removing facial hair for those who have unwanted facial hair. Pay is fantastic and a very rewarding career

Please do the video of how your parents bought the house as a mechanic and office cleaner. I like to dream about the future that was promised to me! I’m 40 by the way

The most difficult thing is when you’re fed as a child the whole story about studying at university to make a life for yourself. You go and study a difficult science, waste years of your life only to get a paycheck similar to the one you would have gotten with no degree and responsibilities 100 times higher. Then one day you realize you could be getting more money by painting nails or cleaning houses, but you’re stuck at trying to make it make sense on why you studied and worked for more than 15 years as a scientist…
