I'm sorry
I'm 26. I own a nice house in a nice area. I own an expensive car with a big V8, my house is full of expensive top-of-the-range gadgets, my fridge is full of nice food and I have plenty of cash left over at the end of the month to spend on nice things.

Am I spoiled? Am I fuck...

I'm on a very good income, doing a job that most blokes would give their right bollock for. The truth is though, the only reason I've got to this point in life is that I've worked my arse off to be here. That includes sacrificing my social life at university to get top marks in my degrees, putting in 80+ hour weeks a couple of years ago in an effort to pull something spectacular out of the bag to be noticed at work and spending all of my time outside of work gaining the further qualifications to get me into the well-paid positions.

I often feel like I've missed out on things, particularly in terms of my social life, but I accept that's the price I have to pay for the better things in life that I now enjoy.

My point is - in all probability, the Range Rover woman has probably worked her arse off too to get where she is, and she's probably made plenty of sacrifices of her own along the way to achieve this. Why do you resent her for this?

Or if not her,
then SOMEONE has worked their asses off and been altruistic / under the thumb enough to give her the car.

So it's either someone working their bollock/ovaries off and buying themselves a nice car, or working even harder and buying someone else a car with it.

Well done for working hard, Rubberduck!
