What 22 year old plans for their parent's cancer? Or really has a solid idea of exactly what their future has in store?

He was doing what people in their early 20s are supposed to do: take risks. He was probably involved in startups before his mom got sick.

Let's not beat him up for doing what many of us are doing right now, then getting caught in an unpredictable and terrible situation and trying to do what he thought was right at the time under a lot of stress and emotion.



I would say he was doing quite well for 22 years old. Many 22 years old have $150k in college debt, he had $150k savings.
