With respect to your experience, you may be one of the small percentage of people where best practices don't work. If you are, then your journey is comparitively very difficult.

You have play with multiple variables all while trying to make a living and deal with everyday stressors. And economics are definitely at work - there are always options, but they get fewer and fewer the less money you have. This makes fat fucks like Limbaugh all the more offensive to normal people like us who've accomplished so much more.
