To each is own really. No one at work knows I burn up on the regular, it doesn't affect my work experience/performance negatively, doesn't dent my finance. All in all there's is very little draw back with herb in my personal life.
Either way, it's not good to look down on people, I highly doubt you're in a better financial place than I am, nor that you would be able to carry the same responsibilities I do. You're coddled and set up very comfortably by your parents, they probably financed your schooling, housing etc, probably a single child with no siblings if you do you probably the type that would tell his brother/sister to pay you back with interest, if you got cousins or other family members you probably have very little to no relations with them. You only look out for yourself, and you've been put on by your dukes.
I'm expected to help out my parents financially, look after my 3 youngest brother despite not living with them, financially support family abroad and throughout the country, work the odd job that is out of my professional background in teaching while outside of teaching school year (like now, I am working in the oil fields as a safety watch making easily over 7k/month, and I already signed a contract worth over 100k to teach up North, isolated reserve of less 500 ppl). I also take the bus, city transit, I don't know how to drive nor have I ever had any interest in learning how to drive, way I see it, I don't need it and I save A LOT of money.
Either way, like I said to each his own ways, same way you seem to look down on me, same way I honestly think that you wouldn't be able to handle my responsibilities and that you are unable to take any kind of hits, cause you've probably lived your whole life on cruise control.
