Noticed this from many of them. A Co-Worker of mine I'm buddies with for ahile I just found out His Dad is a Ambassador to a Well Known Country. After months, it just came in a convo We were having and it was like I almost forced it out of Him. I googled the last name of My Co Worker and saw the picture of the Ambassador and it looked just like Him. This dude We were classmates in College, ended up working for the same Company and He went on to finish His Masters but I never would have imagined. I found out after co workers started teasing Him saying "If I Had Your Dad, I wouldn't even be here". Wow.

His parents taught him well. They wouldn't want him to be rich from inheriting his parents money. He'd rather work for it. Most parents teach their children money doesn't grow on trees at a young age. You also have parents whose 12 and 15 yr old believe there are still tooth fairies. Besides, aabo wouldn't want his son to be a cocky rich loser.

morale of the story;
what you dad is or what your great grand fathers were have nothing to do with who you are. you have to start from scratch.

all somalis know is , my great grandfather was this, or that.

i love the sweeping generalizations you people are making

Everyone should be like that, in fact you would be surprised at the number of white people I know in the same position, making their own paths...mashaAllah for every hard worker out there.
