I'm over it, but I need to say this.
I have enough money now for myself and my children to live comfortably.
What I'm trying to do now is educate a generation of young adults to hopefully make the changes in the world that my generation could not. That's my mission statement.
If someone wants to call me a fake doctor without knowing me or what I do...cool. I'll live. I sometimes just get a little defensive knowing how much effort I put into what I do, purely for an altruistic goal.
