He's trying to make me feel guilty about making a joke about his parents. He should know, though, that I was orphaned at a very early age, and grew up in dozens of foster homes. I ran away from home and was homeless for almost a year before moving in with an acquaintance that I met at a roller skating rink.
Started my own business at age 15 with only $1,000 in startup capital "borrowed" from my high school's concession fund. I'm not a billionaire today, but I am well off, with a salary in the seven figures, and I did it without any help from my parents.
So I feel no sympathy for orphaned youngsters who play the pity card.
