Let's see, when my dad was my age he was about two years removed from a car crash that left him a paraplegic and killed my mother's 18 month old son and twins that she was nine months pregnant with. So he had no income and and constant barrage of medical expenses and legal expenses(the crash was his fault and he was intoxicated) and I believe my mother was trying to take care of him and cover expenses working at a glass factory or something. They both lived with my grandmother. No vehicle.
I'm currently 3 months removed from two years of incarceration, I have a slightly above minimum-wage paying job, own a vehicle and live in a rented house in "the hood" with one roommate splitting expenses. My only debt would be a small amount of student loans and a moderate amount of mental health expenses.
Not sure who's on top at age 26. I'd say we both suck.
