I no longer tell my family about my success, because it begets requests for help. And it seems like other more distant family just wind up being jealous. It’s kind of isolating, because most of us want to share our highs and lows with old friends, not new friends. I don’t really have any specific advice, except for maybe try to be empathetic. Your friends or family probably have all the exact problems as before, except now they can try to use money to fix them. But the money might not even work: think of all the celebs you know about who still struggle with mental health, drug abuse and family problems. That is to say, understand the money doesn’t fix all their problems. So in other words enjoy the fancy meals or nice views your friends share with you. But remember there’s only one dimension of life that’s better for them.
