Just depends on their attitude.

I have one friend whose parents gave him a job at their multimillion dollar company. He constantly brags about the money he is making and the power he has. I'm considering dropping him as a friend. I wouldn't call it "jealousy" but I'm definitely irritated by him.

I have another friend who is 100% humble and just a nice easy going guy. He just made $100k in a real estate deal. I wasn't even slightly jealous. I'm happy for him, and hope he has lots of success.

Just depends on how a person handles it to me.

Was he legitimately qualified or was it nepotism? If the latter, I'd be irritated, too.

Total nepotism. He doesnt even really do anything.

Hes getting $75k a year to sit behind a desk and play solitaire

Kill him and take all that is his.

What you are experiencing is envy, not jealousy

>>1227215
how is your friend becoming rich? is it through a business? a promotion? lottery/inheritance?

these different things will require different methods to prevent jealousy.

sucking dicks, duh

He's ia early employee in a startup that going very well and about to raise another big round.

Also, he asked me to join the company now. Thing is, I have my own (struggling at the moment) business and I can't just drop it and leave my own partners without anything.

Tough situation.

join him anyway! Ask if you can join but take a lower position or something as you struggle to keep your business running etc
