“Yet there are (financially) fortunate people who’d turn up their noses at it.”
Fortunate? As in lucky and not that they worked hard to get to that point?
“for me that’s 3 years of income. Seriously life-altering money.”
If you believe in hard work and continued learning, then you will improve and maybe after years of hard work you will be LUCKY!
Why so prickly about the word “fortunate?” Would you have taken offense if I’d said “blessed” too?
You know nothing about me and I’d like to keep it that way, but you should not presume anything about my age or experience or prospects. You probably have enough to worry about in your own heart.
Good day to you.
