@@fatcat6439 I understand and respect your viewpoint. The high life is the good life indeed. In my honest opinion, it's not all about the high life but teaching your children skills for survival and instilling strong characteristic traits will make them great himan beings.
Issue is u ask the aunt he not trynna see his kids. Seen it all too much, her posting all over facebook talking about he dont wanna see his kids but reality says he had to go to court for months to see his kids
@@30ajgo his biggest mistake was forgetting a core aspect of the method: if a youngster is succeeding, you take credit for influencing their good upbringing, so it's a win-win for you either way lmao
@@threezus7740Honestly its great to have a successful kid since it showed you did good leading them to that path with a good upbringing. Also a lot of kids help their parents out which is nice.
This is 100% accurate. I had a 50+ year old roommate a few years back who was a complete failure at life to point that whenever the subject of my age or achievements came up he'd try the same 3 tactics to save face. 1. He'd challenge me to see who could run up and down the apartment stairs (I was overweight at the time, so it was indirect attack on my weight). 2. He'd rant about how he defended himself in court against the teamster's 30 years ago, thus he was so smart. 3. If he was really drinking and angry, he'd say I need to be responsible (which made zero sense since I never missed a payment on anything and was the only one with a full time job). Just anything he could say to belittle me was used in hilarious fashion. I'm not even highly successful or anything, I just had my head on straight compared to him and half his age.
Damn.. he really decided you would become his punching bag. In reality you were his mirror. He had to face his choices every time he heard your accomplishments and chose to bully.
The resentment is real. They will belittle you afterwards anyways about things you are doing better than they did. They think you don't know what they're doing, and can't tell it's some envious shit. The facts don't lie
@@eskaban_edits_beats_and_moreOh...you're one of those. Jokes on you, rarely ever are women in their 20s attracted to men on their 40s, 50s, 60s lol. Not to mention that the age of the father is more relevant in regards of genetic risks to the child lol. Not to mention women can have children until their 40s.
As a 40 yr old looking at my sons, one just graduating when I didn’t…I’m proud asf and would feel like I failed if they aren’t better than me in every way. Not all older people are on that dumb shit.
My auntie been the same with me growing up. It’s like she didn’t want me to be better at shit too. Like I got a new car and everything and she was all upset 😂
@@andrebonds4199what about the other young men out here? That’s good for your sons but that doesn’t make it good if you’re gonna hate on others just because y’all not related by blood
At this point in my life I just let em have it cause the guilt after hit different “I guess I just dont got it like that anymore” man you lost a game of madden 😂
It's crazy how many people you consider a mentor will straight up turn on you and start praying for your downfall the moment the power dynamic shifts out of their favor. Everything's fine while they maintain that superior position, but the moment you start doing well, suddenly you're ungrateful, lazy, rude, and arrogant. Do not envy others, but instead be thankful for their success and their happiness. Let the happiness of others become your happiness. Let their success motivate you towards your own goals.
@@SentedOnLean Either it's, "watch yo mouth, you ain't grown." Or "You ain't got no business saying that." Maaaaan, fall back! You brought this upon yourself, bruh 😂😂
@@Dj_SLuRRR317 “man I was just tryna joke with ya why you taking it that far?”Who you think you talking to?” Like you wasn’t tryna be malicious asf 😂 they real tough until you start saying stuff back
Fusing each monologue into a conversational flow is top shelf. Being able to switch those characters in his edits is praiseworthy. His abilities is humbling.
"These kids today" are BREAKING generational curses and making way for more educated, financially able children. While (some) toxic older folks are busy reminiscing about toughness (aka taking verbal and physical abuse in silence, only to take it out on family at home )
Not everyone takes physical and verbal abuse and takes it out on people. And there are plenty of kids today doing worse than previous generation despite us telling them not to fall into specific traps.
@@ReaveIdono but in general you see a lot more people doing better than ever, taking the worst examples isnt exactly a fair way to portray a generation
@Omega-mr1jg But in general that is not true. That's why I pointed it out. There are plenty statistics showing Gen Z in crisis. Whether it's Jobs, Housing, Relationships (Intimate or Friends), mental health, etc. I regularly mentor young people. I unfortunately see it too often.
I felt this my soul. One of my uncles is a workaholic by necessity, but my cousin makes more in a week than he does in a month and he's been jealous of that fact. The resentment is real.
So much truth in this, not just with family, but with all people. Human beings are always competing. Its rare that you meet a ego-free person. If you do, hold onto them for dear life. I once had a successful old friend who I used to go fishing with on his nice boat. He would always look stressed but when we were out on the water in his boat, he looked so at peace. When I asked him why did he love being close to nature, he replied, "because in nature, the bees don't try to out-buzz you, the birds don't try to out-chirp you, the wind don't try to out blow you and the sun don't try to outshine you. For human being, nature can be a true competition free zone." I found this to be a profound statement. He's gotten too old to go out on the boat anymore, but as I've gotten older, the less true friends I realize I really have and prize solitude with nature for much of the reasons he stated above and for much of the universal truths held in this video. Thanks Tra Rags. I needed this.
This is lowkey my dad when he saw me succeeding faster and easier than he did. You’d think he’d be proud of his son but instead he was angry at me for not struggling the way he wanted me to.
@@darrickfoster8694I think it’s because your parents wants you to struggle just so that you can “understand” them. There’s a problem with our parents where they want us to be “just like them”. The moment we do better or make different choice that does not conform to that belief, they get threatened. Like o shit, my son is better than me and now he’ll forget us and abandon us. I think part of our parents biggest nightmare is realizing our worth and all the bad things they did to us. Me personally, I love that fear. I love knowing that they’re afraid that I can leave them anytime I want. The thrill of power is satisfying.
To the old heads in their late 50s and up? Know this. If the younger generation has now surpassed you? You did your job as an elder. You can take it easy knowing you helped build them up to where they can handle things. If you still are the main person people have to come to for help? You're still the toughest guy? You failed the next generation. That's when you should be stressed.
@@KWilloAs a former public school teacher, this is facts. Kids come into class absolutely wild, people do not properly parent their kids but will be the first ones to point fingers. Not worth the paycheck.
Not to mention that have these old folks display immaturity more than the todays 20 year olds, For example. 2 years ago I was working with elderly man, he was rushing me on my work when he's the one doing half of the job then I called him out on it then he start a use a profanity then I just walked off called boss man and left.
Little bit weird to say people "failed" the next generation if said next generation need help. The idea that all it takes to be more succesful, is just more hard work, is an illusion. Capitalism determines your wealth, nothing else. And for many, many people, capitalist reality is a dystopia. Even if none of that were the case, some people plainly don't have the right talents or attributes to make it big. Sometimes it really do be like that, and there's nothing you can do about it. Lending a helping hand to your children or family members who are struggling should not, and should never, be seen as failure. It's just that the opposite of that, having the next generation be more succesful, should not be a reason for spite, unless said success was achieved maliciously.
Yup I used to play soccer with my dad and by the time he got to his 50's he started slowing down and I'd just let him get by me but pretend like I'm going all out. Honestly unless your getting paid and trying to beat the best in the world because it's your job, the outcome of the competition doesn't actually matter when you think about. It's really just your ego that wants you to win.
When my mom was 25, she was raising 5-year old me and my 2-year old sister in the projects. I'm 25, no kids, and I just took a trip to Japan last month. It was my first flight, I was there for 2 weeks, and I went by myself. Ever since I came back, I ain't heard from my mom.😂🤦🏾♂️
The "get kids fast, be miserable forever" lifestyle is a literal propaganda tool. Older generations spread it around because they were brainwashed into thinking that's the only valid and worthy lifestyle by their religions and governments who all want as many children as possible to raise as either soldiers or tax payers. As reality changed, consumption became uncontrollable, the earth's resources lessened and lessened, and agressive capitalism became less and less of a viable option for the actual hegemonic centre of global capitalist society. Break the cycle. Stay childless. Be happy. Haters can cope.
I dont know anything about your relationship and if anything has happened, but if nothing has happened that could cause a falling out then that means that your mom has also not heard from you in 2 months.
that's just people as a whole. Some want you to crash and burn while others want to see you thrive and succeed in life. Easy to find those that want you to burn or suffer with them than those that genuinely want you to do well.
this is too real. the moment this happens you realize you broke so many generational curses whole time you just thought you were living normal i dont know how yall managed to make this about the bible, but i promise you, words and phrases Do exist outside of the context of christianity. sorry you had to find out this way.
Man, parents be wanting you to fail beacuse they sure as hell want to be right rather than wanting to see you be doing good. Them peoples are best cut out of your life , I swear on god.
Unc is talking like Drake at the end of the "Heart Part 6". He's clearly defeated, he's trying to hide it and play it off, but you know he's hurt. Devious work 😂
😭😭😭 I remember I was at a check cashing place and some OG was behind me laughing cause I told the clerk I just woke up it's like 11am he starts talking to OG next to him tb kids these days are so lazy wake up late as hell n I turned around with a fat anime smile on my face n said some I got off work at 6am n just woke up I work 5 days out the week 11 hr shifts his face straightened out real quick I said yeah I'm a truck driver I make 1100 a week I ain't that brother n he was like ohh my bad my bad I ain't mean it like that 😂😂😂 humbled fast af
You’re not old. That’s the thing , I’m 28 for example. I was hated on , but I was also kind of a punk lowkey …. So , as an adult I see the lil punk in some younger, BUT I watch out for it cause it cause we’re all young a naive at some point . Hating is never good though in all realness
Nah man it’s sad that some people are fr like that, if I see people younger than me doing better than me ima be happy for them fr cause I’d be glad they’re doing good.
Yeah, we all have that one Uncle 😅 most of the time, I say wassup an keep it pushing, them insecurities start coming out real fast I don't even feel like being bothered 😂 smh
That uncle face, you know they are about to be petty when they do that face😂😂. Literally one uncle made that face agaisnt me when he was asking me why i dont have a girlfriend rn, when his two kids has 0 rizz and they dont even have enough confidence to talk to a baddie. That's life, some people are going to do better than you with less effort, there's nothing you can't do about it. Instead of hating just for free, be glad another human being is doing good in life, specially a relative.
My uncle who’d been in and out of prison my entire childhood hated on my business until it made some money then all of a sudden he had tons of ideas and was treating me different. Elders who aren’t happy with what they’ve created for themselves will flog you every chance they get because they’re terrified that someone they’ve seen grow up figured it out and they never really got it together or made wrong decisions. You succeeding proves to them that they’re somewhat responsible for their lot. If they’ll only show support when you succeed it’s not support, it’s a move. Got a bit deep for a skit video but seeing it made realise everyone has a hating ass family member.
They swear up and down they do all the things they do so you can do better than them. Then when you actually do better than them it’s a problem. I literally had this discussion with my mother when she hit me with the “Y’all got it too easy” quote and I’m just like bruh was that not the point of you working so hard as a parent?!?! 😂😂 So I can live a better life?
I did not even watch it first before i broke down launching. The title did me in. Them old heads be salty if you done ran to many laps on em. Unc had sodium oozing out his heart lmbo! ❤
That's how it suppose to be, the new generation is supposed to learn from our mistakes and do be better, makes me happy not seeing the cycle repeating🙏🏼
Bruhhh when I went to the liquor store on Friday to get a bottle I had a fresh cut & my work vest on. This OG had looked at me like “fck nga” told him have a good weekend he just looked at me. I happened to be parked next to him. I let the top down on the mustang gt. He was in a like a 07 Silverado work truck it was clean tho. He was really muggin the shit out of me. 😂
I always been doing better than a lot of older generation. I just learn to keep quiet because people get jealous and try to ruin your success out of spite
I am older, forty-five years old and I love seeing young Black men being successful, making money and doing something positive with it. Just to let people know, this isn't the status quo.
This is why you humble yourself, take your time, asked questions, get educated and gain expertise in a traditional field instead of chasin the bag, the young ones can always beat you in the chase.
😂😂😂 funny to see your own elders hate on how far you got this made me laugh because Monday my mom decided she wasn’t talking to me anymore because I just got my first house and she still lives in an apartment I still don’t know how to take that honestly
