"I was able to buy my first house at age 18 due to hard work, sacrifice, and my parents giving me the entire sum in cash" of social experiments.

Yeah but if I hadn't become ill or had found a well paying job or didn't dislike the cold and hunger in those first few days when I actually 'slept rough' and if CBS had picked up on my marketing gimmick sooner so that a venture capitalist would come along with $millions to invest in my very innovative idea of selling dog coffee (I mean, that is genius, I bet nobody else has thought of selling dog coffee before), I would have made more than one measly million. When others fail it's never for these reasons. It's always laziness. Anyway I'm back to my mansion now that the health scare is over due to the phenomenal health insurance that I had throughout the whole time. And I'd like to thank every major news organisation in the Western world for boosting my story; that venture capitalist came along and it turns out that they were as impressed as expected and I've now made that extra mil. Bye losers.
