this is so Carrie of you to say that.

I would agree with others...this could actually be a good thing. It's not all about the money and real friends wouldn't tease you because of that.

I really feel 4 you!! I must say that comments like "you needed this" "this is good thing for you" "live in the real world" are absolutely unnecessary..

And I will be honest and actually say that comment like "rich people are dumb, superficial etc." is retarded.. and just to make it clear I don't even know who wrote it while I'm typing this so I don't wanna offend, but that comment itself IS retarded...

I feel 4 for you, as it's not same being poor whole life, or be rich(and it sound you were extremely rich) and than just have it taken away form you.. In my country they say the worst thing one may say to another is "May God let you have, and than take it away from you"..

And I mean it's not like you deserved it or money was taken away from you because you were bad or done something wrong, it's just taken away from you... And you seem like really nice guy plus I get you are really good student, you actually don't seem spoiled at all...


I'm also sad to hear your "friends" are like that.. and especially my example is totally different... I mean I live in great material situation since I was born.. I'm not talking about private cars and something like that, but yes growing up i always had more money than 90% of people that I know.. And people who didn't have money used to judge me(and they still do) all the time, and people who I meet and have more money than me never pay attention to that.. Rich ppl I know are so nice and can hang with anybody without being judgmental..

growing up,I had ppl without money coming at me and be like "It's easy for you, my parents work hard for money" I mean like my dad didn't work night and day to afford me life I live.. and even now when I go to university and work ppl are still like "it's easy for you, you work for your dad"..and nobody seas how hard my job actually or even ask me what's actually my job.. Or for example in my class I had this really rich girl(and she was actually really regular girl who used to have a lot of money and is extremely HOT)and when we went on school trips so many ppl hated of her because she was spending a lot of money for shopping, and they didn't want to hang with her and were calling her ungrateful and bitch.. But actually her and mine dad SECRETLEY paid a lot of money so more kids could actually go with us on the trips.. Or I have one extremely rich friend(she's kind of famous here) she lives in 2 mill $ house, but just wants to be regular.. And there was group of us 7 going for drink and I called her to go with us, and at the end we all paid our account, and when we are going home ppl were like" she is such a Bitch, she didn't even want to pay for all of us"...It's really sad that your rich friends are completely different that ones I meet..

So my point is ppl will judge you always and anyway, just learn to live with it and try to find real friends..I know it's hard for you but just stay on the right path... Enoy little things, keep educating yourself and work on your health, so you will be able to make better life for yourself one day...

Are we supposed to feel bad for u? Because what hapenned to your family is clearly a blessing for u so u can wake up and live in the real world...(sorry if I sound harsh, but your current life is far more normal than your previous one)... oh and go get some real friends while you're at it, you don't need those trash u were hanging out with

I would add ... there are people with much bigger problems then not being in the front row of Lady Gaga concert ...

I think you need to learn to enjoy life, not what power, "friends" etc. money ever gave you.

Remember that those best things in life are priceless.
