That nigga came from nothing, worked his way up from engineer in a F500, provided for 4 kids, had an awesome marriage, and retired in the fairly large family home with a significant pension and responsible savings. |

Maternal Grandfather ran away from an abusive household, went to a magnet high school, fought in KOREA, but then just decided to sell suits instead of learning a trade or going to college. |

My paternal grandfather fought in Europe during WWII and worked for the railroads after he returned home. His wife died of Cancer in 1990, and even though the medical bills were over 500k, he wouldn't declare bankruptcy. He made payments until he died at 88.

One grandfather was an engineer in WW2 then went to LS, became a tax lawyer for the mafia and a bunch of other shady motherfuckers and raised 7 kids in NYC. I often kick myself for not taking over this business. The other was a high school principal who enjoyed weed, pornography, and classic 'Vettes at his upstate farmhouse where 4 kids were raised. Me: hoping to crap out enough money from shitlaw to have two kids and a house in shitburban NY by 40. |

Other grandpa was in the marines at okinawa and iwo jima.
Great grandpa was a dairy farmer I never met but had a big dairy farm that delivered milk bottles. Great grandma was an awesome cook and sweet lady and an artist.
Great grandpa on other side was an engineer and entrepreneur and died with like $400 million. His wife and him were rich since they were 30 and had horses, flew a plane and traveled on old fancy ocean liners and shit. |
