Is your life currently what you thought it would be?

I am no where near where I thought I would be, but I wouldn't go as far as saying its horrible. I'm 22 years old. At 18, I became a homeowner, I bought a foreclosed home at a very good price and I will be selling it hopefully next month I own a very small office cleaning business and volunteer a lot in my community and church. I am happy and proud of myself and being latino, not having kids or working a minimum wage job is a plus for me. A lot of latino friends of mine aren't doing a thing with their lives, except only buying and smoking weed, drinking, working for minimum pay, having kids or having one on the way, or buying snap backs, bragging about how much they have swag. So I thank God for blessing me, my family, and the road that is ahead of me

You need better friends if you're doing that well...

Not saying shitty friends will make you start fucking up, but I imagine you'd be a lot less likely to slip up with positive encouragement from others doing better than yourself.

I understand what you are saying, but sometimes with so much negative energy around you, you have to keep a positive outlook on life. I am just proud that I did go that negative route that many people around me took. Thank you for your advice
