I've been to prison twice, and made $248k last year. Two things; one, get a trade. CDL, electrician, plumber, welder, roofer etc. learn the skilled trade. Two, start your own company and be your own boss. YES, you made EVERYTHING in your life going forward exponentially more difficult. Suck it up buttercup. You did the crime, do the time. No one will feel sorry for you. So remove the desire for sympathy from your brain. You're going to have to work harder hours and longer days to prove to everyone you're NOT the butthole those felonies make u seem like. I did ten REALLY hard years, came home in 2011, got married in 2012, had twins in 2013. Got my CDL in 2013. Yes, it frickin sucks. But you're a grown up. Find a way to be your own boss. You won't run a background check on yourself...good luck. It's a tough frickin road. But it's doable. I just did it.

Based felon redditor. Instead of feeling sorry for himself he did something about it and now he's married, has kids, and is making that bread.
