As a poor kid turned high-earning 30-something, money on money really feels unfair

I’m talking about the fact that I finally invested a good chunk of money in the markets this year via an RRSP. Spent the time before that repaying student debts, buying a place (something tangible), etc. I was conservative with my investments but still raked in great returns, and there’s the dividends on top of all that. Then there’s the fact that I’ll get back a good chunk of that good chunk in my tax returns next year.Call it imposter syndrome, but it feels “weird” that I’m “earning” a sizeable amount of money by doing “nothing”. The poor kid in me laments how easy it is for wealthy people. The poor kid in me also wants to sell everything and spend it.Figured other born-poor folks might relate. via /r/PersonalFinanceCanada https://ift.tt/3oK8knO
