The little curly haired cousin that I remember being like two feet tall just bought his first house.

I don't even have a house, so unfair.

I have a childhood friend who legitimately inherited a house from a relative they didn't even know about. I admit to being kind of jealous but to their credit they admit its a totally unfair stroke of luck.

Finical stability and wealth is very luck based in the US.

I'd say it's pretty true in the rest of the world as well unfortunately. At least wealth.

True.

You enter the world and it’s the first roll of the dice.

At least in the US it's possible to get a re-roll of the luck dice. In places with a rigid caste system you're stuck.

You get a re-roll but with the same shit dice

Some people get handed 20 sided die with a 21 on each side, and some of us get handed a set -10 thru 10.

You get a reroll but we don’t all get the same dice.
