Their Wealth Made Me Feel Inferior.
I’ve got some projects that I really want to invest in this year and I do not feel like powering down my Hive. My plan is to work hard for the money either online and offline. Luckily, a teacher sent me a message two days ago and told me about a parent who needs a private lesson teacher for child.
I work in a big school so I’m sure they won’t pay me an amount of money that is very small. i took up the job offer and I started the job today. They live in an estate so gaining entrance into the place was quite difficult since I need to get a code and the parent had not sent the code to me earlier.
When I finally got to the house and the door was open, I was wowed. These parents are damn rich! I made sure that I had a good time with the pupil I went there to teach and also make sure that I’m being jovial with the parents.
The lesson lasted for one hour and thirty minutes and when I was about to leave, the mother was in the kitchen so I had to go there to tell her that I was about to take my leave. The kitchen was superb. Everything there is not just looking beautiful but expensive too.
When I left the house, I began to feel inferior because I wished I lived in that kind of house when I was little. i wished I got the same kind of treatment that the kids are getting now but my story was different. It’s not my parents fault. They honestly cannot bite more than they can chew so I’m grateful to them for bringing me this far.
I just hope a day comes when I’m rich or even richer than these people. Right from baby, I’ve always wanted to live in a story building, beautiful and entering different cars owned by my parents but my wish didn’t come true. I was that girl who had to help her mum for about two hours at the shop before she goes to school and seeing this now made me truly know that there are some set of people enjoying this life than I do and getting all they want.
I just hope that I am able to helo my kids fulfill the kind of life that they want to live. I’d be that mother who will provide all they want for them and I hope I succeed. I’m crying right bow because I want the best for myself and I don’t ever want my kids to feel inferior.
May the Lord help me.
God will perfect all that concerns you
Amen and you too
Thanks so much
look at this as an opportunity to ingratiate yourself with them. If the kids are young you could have a long term job which could lead to a long term relationship with the family. You'll be continually exposed to their type of lifestyle and possibly their "peers" which can all lead to amazing things.
This is exactly what my sister told me
Thanks for your kind words
I would be pleased if you share in which you are going to invest, I'm also looking for some,,
They are just Nigerian businesses and I don’t think foreigners can invest
I’m sorry
ahh okay :+
While it is true that one should not compare oneself with others, there are times when it is impossible to look at the privileged position that some people have and compare it with what we have... but at the end of the day the important thing is that one understands that everyone's circumstances are different and one has to do the best possible with what has been given to us in this life.
You are right
Those things may just serve as a motivation to us
I hope we work harder and get to where we want in life
Yay! 🤗

I felt the same growing up. Now I just try to count my blessings and do my best to better my situation. My heart goes to you, keep your focus always and you'll meet your goals .
Yes ooh
I’m glad that I’m not in the place I used to be before so that is enough for me to give thanks to God
What you feel @rafzat and want for yourself and your children is normal. We all aspire to be healthy and able to maintain ourselves financially and above our means, if possible. The fact that you acknowledge your feelings and are working to accomplish this for yourself and your descendants tells the type person you are. One who strives for what they want.
You could attempt to gain wealth by unlawful means or taking what others have. But you choose to operate within the framework of a lawful society. It is not easy. Many people have generational wealth that is passed down from their ancestors.
This type of wealth gives children a head start over others. But it doesn't make them wise or intelligent enough to handle it.
Giving your children wealth and then teaching them how to handle it is the best route. Also, if you don't have wealth, teaching them how to obtain it is even better.
Good luck with your investment. I have learned that it doesn't have to start of large You can can independence by the slow and steady approach.
My parents did not leave my any generational wealth, but they taught me how to work hard and make smart choices. With that, I obtained an excellent job that at the time I didn't realize how it would benefit me in the long run. Now, I'm able to leave my children stocks, bonds, savings, and investments that gave them a start in life.
It will come because you believe it can. Take care.
