Single parent's are bringing up the best kids these days imo - they work hard have a lot of worry and have to keep things together as best they can - that in turn makes their kids learn to do a lot of stuff for themselves and appreciate the value of things -

It is such a shame that a lot of these people are ending up homeless at around age 50 - having had to pay rent for 20 years and ending up in a bad situation as a result - that is a real thing....
Some really nice people posting lately - bit of a silver lining to a bearish market - all the shiny lambos are in the workshop

An ever changing interesting beast - phycology and perhaps understanding oneself is a big thing
All very interesting challenging and fun - being nice is a good skill

If every one brings a plate and gives a hand up it is better....
