I run a modestly successful small gardening business. It took me a year to really get it going properly. For context im in my 30s and have worked in really demanding jobs to get into a position to start something.
Ever since I went full-time my sibling has had this attitude like I just won the lottery and wont share. Other people have also started acting like im driving around in a RollsRoyce with a monocle, I don’t really get it.
I give my sibling left over gardening supplies and i’ve sub contracted another friend who lost their job. Trying to share my success when I can. Whats with the hostility? Have other people experienced this kind of thing?
just came here to say i really love your simile “acting like i’m driving around in a RollsRoyce with a monocle.” great visual lol.

don’t let other people’s bitterness rain on your hard work. you don’t owe anybody anything. be careful with “helping” people out, too. it’s lovely to do, but again, you don’t owe them this, i’ve seen a lot of situations where the “help” snowballs into something ugly where you are doing all the work and people are just taking from you or taking advantage of you. don’t let your family do to you what Britney’s family did to her.
