You know the difference between people who succeed and people who don't (like you)? It's simple. Those who succeed have a strong awareness of potential and a strong belief in themselves. They know that even if they don't have certain skills now, they can learn them. They know if something seems hard now, it is temporary. On the other hand people like you will point fingers at anyone but yourself to try and justify why you can't succeed. Everything is always everyone else's fault, never your own. Family, friends, job, your cat - always something holding you back. Until you get over being a giant fukkin pussy afraid to fail and unsure of yourself, you will stay in that position. Your number one priority should be trying to take responsibility for every aspect of your life - which you no doubt won't.

******* you 20, you have 10 years to retire and have life on easy mode
if you not born into money you gotta hustle hard in your 20s. 10 yrs bust your balls then the world is yours
nothing more satisfying than being in your 30s, not working and enjoying life, and watching plebs doing 9-5

You make it seem like the sky is the limit for kids so that hopefully they will work harder and become more than just a loser like OP complaining about life on a bodybuilding forum.

It's impossible for everyone to be successful based on how the world works, but who's to say "you" can't be one of these people who will be successful. That's what positive thinkers are really trying to say.

(actually, they assumed it would be better for us because we had college degrees.)

OP, it gives you all the more reason to bust your ass and save $$$ while you're still young and at the pinnacle of the youth. The hot sloots will come and go but experiences last a life time. I have dreams of my own and secret plans to obtain it.
-Become a pro boxer between 25-35
-Become a voice actor for cartoons (because I like cartoons myself)
-Travel the world and go to places I haven't seen before
-Learn how to surf and compete in 10 or more events
-Learn how to snowboard and compete in 10 or more events
-Go-Kart and be in 10 or more events
-Bowl
When I become stronger and aesthetic as hell when I'm 40ish, maybe or not, I will go to NASA to become an astronaut
The point is that you have to forge your own path and learn to cut ties so that way you will be closer to the goal.

I was agreeing with you ftr. Your first reply is the attitude I have in life and have had for a few years now. I've also made solid progress. Went from fa virgin to at least some success. Went from socially awkward ******* who shivered in fear of running out of things to talk about to a guy most people say is funny. Went from a guy who had no confidence and one who allowed people to walk over him to a guy who carries himself with pride. I've lost all my old "friends" too because they were unhappy with me not being a vagina anymore. I went from a guy who had a 52 average in all of high school to a guy who's doing decently in university. May not seem like a big deal but for me relative to where I was and how close I was to dropping out of highschool it is kinda a big deal. Without the attitude you prescribe - which is also synonymous with the red pill community's attitude (I don't go there anymore) I highly doubt I would have made the progress I have made.
On the other hand, I just don't think everything has to be so black and white. That's where our issue is. Some people are born in average households and some people are born in above-average households. People who are born in abusive poverty hell-holes are kinda phucccked until unless they get lucky or manage to run into the right people. Just because we need to have a black and white simplistic attitude to make changes in our lives and have to take responsibility for our actions whether it's our fault or not doesn't mean we can't have a little empathy for others who may not reach the same conclusions.
Why would a guy who was mauled for 16 years of his life blame himself for that? I ran into the right people. This one guy explained it as: "when you play a cards game, do you get mad and throw a hissy fit when you get a poverty deck or do you work with what you have?" That's how I view everything in my past.All I am saying is that not everyone is fortunate enough to find the right mentors and have gone through some horrendous chit. As a guy that was locked for 16 years in his life, I can understand how a guy can have autist level social skills, be an AFC (average frustrated chump), and feel the world is a trap and not realise what has to be done to overcome and what sort of attitude is needed. I empathise with said guy at times especially if he's working to improve his life but still not getting anywhere because of how far behind he has started from. I think it's unfair to tell him everything he's gone through is his own fault.
Can we agree on that at least brah?
