When Jeff Bezos started Amazon he had nothing but an Ivy League education and $150,000 from his parents.

He didn't let that hold him back.

What's your excuse?

@Daojoan It seems that you are not playing in Jeff's league since I've never heard of you before. So what's your excuse?
BTW: getting a life start package of $150,000 isn't commonplace.

@StefanMuenz @Daojoan OP was being *very* sarcastic.

You aren't the first commenter to have missed it. The fact that we hear stuff like this said in earnest often enough that *anyone* missed the sarcasm says a lot about our culture. :(

@hosford42 @Daojoan Thanks for clarifying. It's not my mother language (and of course not my native culture) so that might explain my lack of sensitivity in that case.
@StefanMuenz @Daojoan I get it. Being autistic is often compared to even your mother tongue being a second language. That's why I'm a fan of the /s qualifier for sarcastic posts.
