Someone quit their job to start a business without telling their risk-averse parents. They hid it until they'd made over $1 million, then shifted the conversation to supporting their parents instead of defending the choice.

Someone quit their job to start a business without telling their risk-averse parents. They hid it until they'd made over $1 million, then shifted the conversation to supporting their parents instead of defending the choice.
From my parents, I didn't tell them that I quit my job until I was already like millionaire with more than $1 million. I didn't tell them, I was like, yeah, yeah, working factory, everything is good. Because I didn't want— they would say, oh, you started the business? Oh, it's so risky. Yeah. Because in their own career, their own journey, like they started the business and it didn't work out for them. Probably they don't have the right mindset for it. Yeah, it's not a productive conversation. Yeah. And so I just like decided to not have that conversation. And even when I told them like I actually quit my job and I started the business, like, why did you do that? Yeah. Like, why you're not getting yourself a job? And so yeah. And the way they ask about this is like, do you have enough work? Which means, is business doing well? Yeah, I have enough work. Yeah. The conversation stops right there. And I'm asking about them, how can I help them, support them? That's our whole conversation. But yeah, so it's like you didn't cut them out of your life, but you changed the way you talk about it. Yeah, same thing.
