    My mom worked in a factory, my dad has been chronically unemployed and her parents worked at a food cart.

    We owned a 3 story house with two kitchens, four bathrooms, and six bedrooms for $70k in the hood. Gentrification happened and it’s worth a million now.

    I make double what my mom makes, and with the combined salaries of my wife, we still rent.
