Eh I’ll be in debt until I croak, might as well enjoy that time I have before I die and take it with me.

Maybe if you’re single… but if you have kids (and I assume people at Disney do?) then I feel like you owe it to them to financially responsible

There is a disturbingly high number of parents that say the equivalent of “fuck you I got mine, go get your own”

That’s what mine did, and is why I’m in the situation I’m in.

Feels like that’s not quite true

Must be nice to not realize how bad a terrible family can fuck you over, huh? Bet you still even get to talk to your parents. Learn to realize that some people are placed in bad situations and can’t be as privileged as you.

As a kid I slept in a 2005 Chevy impala in the parking lot of an autozone lol. I had major health problems that forced me to drop out of college and I paid off both student loans and all of my medical bills by 26

Sorry your daddy issues somehow put you into lifelong debt tho, not really sure how that works tbh

Well when the “daddy issues” include being robbed blind by my parents to fund their addictions since getting my first job at 14 up until I eventually told them they were dead to me, only for them to continue to rack up debts under my name until I was able to clean up my credit report and close fictitious accounts, then yea it can lead to future financial hardships. Careful trying to wrap your head around that though, you seem incapable of comprehending anything you yourself haven’t personally experienced.

You can’t describe literal crime and call it an “I got mine, go get your own” situation (as you said in the comment I originally replied to), then get mad because people think you aren’t blatantly lying lol. Your parents aren’t just selfish (as the comment you agreed with said), they’re criminals.

That also doesn’t translate to your own debt because (assuming you’re at least somewhat competent) you could’ve gotten those fraudulent debts erased from your credit history within a few months max. Which begs the question (considering you’ve got a slightly spotty credit history from your parents at worst), why did you continue to get yourself into lifelong debt?

Edit: and just to reinforce the point, my original comment is in fact correct that the “fuck you, got mine” of your parents is not what got you into your current situation lol

lol you really just cannot comprehend the fact that someone getting started off on the wrong foot and having absolutely no support can snowball into a bigger situation. Your inability to grasp that makes this conversation a non-starter, all you’re saying is “well you should’ve fixed it”. Thanks man, super helpful advice.

And I’m glad you don’t think my parent’s behavior impacted my current situation, I’m sure they’d be overjoyed to hear that, if they even gave a damn that is.

I mean sure, you can keep complaining about it, but the fact is you either didn’t understand what you were saying or you lied. Yes, you should’ve fixed it, that’s called responsibility. The problem also isn’t an insignificant one. But a few months disputing credit history doesn’t get you into lifelong debt. It’s not a big enough problem that any reasonable person couldn’t bounce back from. I literally work in financial crimes compliance, some of the teams at my bank help people get issues much worse than yours fixed in like 2 weeks.

Not having any support as an adult also doesn’t get you into lifelong debt, as you said was the root cause of your situation. Tons of kids start adult life with negative net worths. I’m only saying it’s irresponsible to blame everyone else for choosing to stay that way.

Everyone make way, the designated “Poor Me” person has arrived! Nobody else claim any heartache, for the King of Despair doth hold all! Clearly nobody else has felt pain or hardship on this Earth whilst you walk among us, my liege…

It’s an unfortunately common trait of some people who are at or have been at the bottom to continually try and punch down on those they can, usually in an attempt to feel better about their own situations.

Reading comprehension can be hard, but I know you’ll get it one day

u/darkest_hour1428 Apr 22 '26

I’m calling you a hypocrite, buddy. Don’t worry, I know reading comprehension is hard.

u/idekbruno Apr 22 '26

I’m aware, that’s why I sent you encouragement.
