I run a modestly successful small gardening business. It took me a year to really get it going properly. For context im in my 30s and have worked in really demanding jobs to get into a position to start something.

Ever since I went full-time my sibling has had this attitude like I just won the lottery and wont share. Other people have also started acting like im driving around in a RollsRoyce with a monocle, I don’t really get it.

I give my sibling left over gardening supplies and i’ve sub contracted another friend who lost their job. Trying to share my success when I can. Whats with the hostility? Have other people experienced this kind of thing?

    It happens almost always. When you try doing something that goes against the tide and against the set societal norms, you get the hostility. Basically, you broke the normal, got out of the matrix and showed others it is possible for them too, but they don’t want to change and try to drag you down to their level of “normal”
