Be prepared for the transparent attempts to ingratiate themselves with you once you're successful. I've had that constantly from family and people I thought were friends, and lots of girls that treated me like trash beforehand (likely hearing through friends of friends how I'm doing nowadays and try to fix what they screwed up long ago), and/or belittle me and demean and doubt me and my success and tell me I'd never make it. Well I did make it, and I haven't forgotten how I was treated by them. The revisionist thinking from them has amused me too. A few have actually had either the delusion or audacity to come up to me and try to say "Hey, just so you know, no hard feelings..." WHAT?! YOU were the ones acting like trash, how dare you try to take the high road with me when it was you causing all of this. Just irritated me even more that they refused to take any responsibility for why things are the way they are, subtly implying it was all my fault somehow, and their behaviour had nothing to do with causing it all.

Just be prepared for that, and don't forget is what I'm saying. Because I guarantee THEY will forget, and even revise history.

When they know you have something, they'll spit shine your boots in hopes of getting some of what you have.

That's just human nature for the most part.



There's a quote that your situation reminds me of:

Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.

You have a great mind with great ideas. Don't let it bother you Shannon. People like that aren't even worth your vengeance.

Looking back on my life, it looks more and more suspiciously to me like I have been being "prepared" for the responsibility that will result from achieving great wealth for all these years. Not just in terms of being strong enough to defend myself from this sort of *****, but to not do stupid things with the money once I have it. Back when I started trying to make myself a millionaire (I was 18 at the time) I would have lost it all to leeches in an instant. Now... not so much. I have not enjoyed the long journey and the multiple "almost did it" scenarios that failed at the last moment, but I am definitely a stronger, wiser, more capable man for them. And probably when I am capable of handling the responsibility of dealing with the consequences of great wealth fully, and all of what that wealth will do for opening up new vistas of responsibility concerning why I am here and what I am attempting to achieve... I will achieve great wealth.

But I feel like I passed a test tonight by handling it the way I did. That's why I said... forget them. They can eat their own dog food and I will live my life. Revenge is a waste of time and energy and focus on the past you can't change, when you could be doing something worth your time and effort instead.

Their loss. I have a very good, very long memory.

And I am very good at detecting and defeating psychological manipulation and calling out *****. I'm sure this will only make me better when I achieve millionaire.

Good for you, sounds like you turned a corner and enforced boundaries regardless of the storm they bring down on you. Fantastic!

I had several "almost did it" scenarios, and had to go back and reinvent myself after a few of them, I was in rough shape. But, if you want it bad enough, you adapt, come back better next time. Finally, I broke through and developed something that could get me through the barrier.

You will too, I have zero doubt in my mind based off what I've seen so far.

I had problems with my father who also could not see any logic, yet ironically he talks down about women being emotional and unresonable. I couldn't change him. Nobody could.

The harder it gets, the tougher skin we grow.

Thank you for being here helping us become better men and women not only with subs but with your wisdom as well. I wish you nothing but the best Shannon.
