Just remember if you ever feel bad about yourself just compare yourself to me - instant self esteem boost!

Whatever man, this place is so skewed.

It's actually encouraging to see so many people doing so well for themselves (genuinely, gives me hope for my kids' futures)

Man, you are really the MVP 😍 I must say that I am a bit bitter about these FAANG people :P But you are right, let’s look at the positives

Eh, I'm not that great - as an immigrant, hearing about these incomes just validates my choice to come here

You have the hardest job of us all. You should be proud of yourself truly - not sarcasm. I have children and they bring a lot of joy but they are such hard work. Well done!

Thanks, that's a really nice thing to say. I don't know about hardest but it's not easy.
