You are not very logical. That is the nicest way I can say it. Men were hit much worse in this down turn. That is the facts.

I hope u never need a hand from your family. I hope even more your family never needs help from you until you learn humility.

I suspect your under 35 and still live in a world not touched by true adversity. Maybe you are that rare person who overcomes everything without help from your friends and family.

I was like that, cocky, until I needed help. I’m a better MAN today.

That is an assertion.

A hand isn’t a handout.

I suspect you have never been more wrong in your life. I have cheese in my fridge older than that. Yes, I overcame all on my own 2 feet, as a man does. I help my family when they need it but so far I haven’t needed economic help from them — just love and emotional support (which is what family is supposed to provide).

>>I was like that, cocky, until I needed help. I’m a better MAN today.<<

A man who stands on his own 2 feet and meets life and overcomes adversity, sometimes by just being knocked down more than a peg, isn’t cocky. He is merely self-reliant and conversant in the school of hard knocks. But don’t feel bad about accepting help. We all need it from time to time.

But I think you misread the article.
