There is some hurtle hurdle in the way; some problem.

Man! And right at the beginning of the article!

In many ways, you’ve written a beautiful encouragement for others.

Thank you.

Some good points; but you really need a proofreader and editor.

Thanks for the offer. Can you please provide me with a draft by the end of tomorrow. Thanks.

Am a little puzzled by the repeated images of that stinkin', treacherous "Fred C. Dobbs" from "Treasure of Sierra Madre."

Fred C. Dobbs: Nobody puts one over on Fred C. Dobbs.

Wordpress has a terrible grammar checker. So I use Grammerly as well. This mistake was missed by both. You have any ideas of something better?

Fred C Dobbs faced adversity. Poverty. Humiliation. Long odds of success.

Fred C Dobbs faced adversity. Poverty. Humiliation. Long odds of success.

And failed miserably, because he was a terrible human being!

Not my job. If you’re going to post here, you should assume the responsibility to make your posts clean and readable.

Exactly. Many young men will, and have, experienced these kinds of setbacks as they move forward in their lives. From having a boss lie, cheat and steal your money, to getting a winning lottery ticket and investing it into an opportunity. To every trial along the way.

A good, old-fashioned dictionary?

Can you help a fellow American down on his luck?

If I was a native, I’d get me a can of shoe polish and I’d be in business. They’d never let a gringo. You can sit on a bench til you’re three-quarters starved. You can beg from another gringo. You can even commit burglary. But try shining shoes in the street or peddling lemonade out of a bucket and your hash is settled. You’d never get another job from an American.

It's tough being a young man today. Not only do you have the traditional hurdles to deal with, but you have an adversarial political-social reality that snips at your heels and punches you in the gut.

We like to think that things haven't changed over the decades, but they have. They really have. In the old days, you could get by and "bend some rules", today, that could get you in prison. If you get on welfare, or food stamps to help get fed, the moment you get a job, of any type, it is pulled out from under you.

Friends and family in America often tend to be selfish and will silently be joyful over your misfortune. Young men need to know that they can strike out on their own and be successful at whatever they set their mind to.

This is what young men of today need to hear...

My company just hired this new 18 year old kid, a real go-getter, always getting up on your grill asking meaningful and relevant questions and actually trying to learn the trade. He’s always watching to see how you do things and then wanting (if not demanding!) a crack at it himself.

That’s one thing I don’t mind a young kid demanding: go for it dude, I sense that you’ve watched me enough and can do it to a quality standard. At the end of the day I don’t even have to ask the kid to grab a broom, he just sweeps and packs up tools.

He’ll really work out. Says he’s saving to buy a house and, you know what, he’ll have it by the time he’s 21 or so without all the college debt and the brainwashed mind.

Dude’s an internet propagandist for the Chinese Communist Party.

The Meuller report is full of examples of Trump's obstruction.
