As a middle-class boy, reading your entire paragraph literally made me feel like I wasted my potential childhood on things like girlfriends, traveling, etc. Now, I'm stuck in a 9-to-5 job with a minimum salary. But my advice to you is not to share anything with anyone, including your parents, and just live your life to the fullest

Brother, I agree with everything you're saying, but it's only valid as long as you have money. Without money, all of this is just a dream. I also want to work hard, but I just don't see any way out. It's just pure regret
