My dad :(

[townhaus]

I was having a late night 'argument' with my dad, trying to explain to him why I want to start a business instead of building a career. I was trying to get him to lend me some cash after my exams to (<$1000) as i'm currently broke. (ive been working on the site, doing as much as i can for free but need some php done that I cant figure out on my own.)

He was telling me that all entrepreneurs use their degrees/started of from a privilaged background and challenged me to find a counterexample. Told me that I show no signs of being an entrepreneur (laziness, not in the genes, all entrepreneurs were selling stuff throughout school when I havn't been etc)

I dont know why I even wasted my time, but I mentioned MJ and told him to read his book, so he can try and have an understanding of the way I think because maybe I wasnt explaining well enough, but i think hes just stubborn and closed minded.

I send him a copy of MJs "My Story" to prove him wrong.

Here was his response

"Absolute and utter tosh.
For someone who doesn't buy the religious story [im an atheist], grasping at straws like this is both delusional and life-destroying.
It reads like another American Dream motivation story - everyome can be the President of USA. Can they ???????????
Everyone looks for an easy way out... thats why lottery ticket sales are huge - it doesn't exist for 99.9999999% of us, and be assured you are one of them.
Get to work and forget this drivel."

I strongly dislike dad
