Independent and Sponsored...Sorry??

I don't think any "independent" human being has the right to create a wish list that needs sponsorship. You can have dreams and yes, you can have a hell of a lot of them. But if you need someone else's money to get you there, you are a loser. So shed that drama about being a liberated individual because you are not. Admit you are a dependent baggage waiting to be carried off to your destination on someone else's shoulders. Or at least someone else's credit card. No matter who takes you there, if it is not you, it is not your success. If that admission hurts, drop your wish list. Preserve your self respect.
Dream big and then earn your reality and your success.
