Its nothing new it’s been with us for ages, some people finish primary school and have to work in the most frustrating worst paying jobs, while some finish they PhD being fed by their parents. For one it might be unfair because you have to work your *** off to afford it, while others get money from parents, but for others it might be unfair that you can walk and work while they are stuck on wheelchair for the rest of their life’s. is it unfair? I don’t know but looking from different perspective those people that have money to sponsor their child’s education also had to work very hard in the past (maybe you will be sponsoring your child one day). I assume if your dad came and said “look son i got 100k for your training” you would deny and go back working two shifts?
Stop looking at others and don’t compere yourself, you will make it one day and that’s what counts! All the best, nice to see some hard working pal for his dream!
