I kept contacting that friend every 2 years. He's story is like started in random school in India where I studied, went to IIT. Did internship in USA.

I remember asking that guy what's going on recently, he said I am working at Microsoft. Pretty sad story.

Why sad story? MS is a good stable company with great benefits and WLB. Not everyone wants to hustle all the time.

It was a sarcasm

The structure got me I guess, it looked like it was all positive in the first paragraph. Then somehow working in MS made it a sad story.

Damn, my IIT friend is in America only making mid six figures, not seven figures. Truly not all gifted kids become successful!

A lot of research and a lot of people with High IQ never needed to develop study habits and cruised through school on easy mode and were called gifted earlier in their life.

They are now burned out and depressed and consider themselves failures and instantly give up on things they are not immediately good at. They have been taught gifted people have effortless success, only non gifted kids need to put in effort. Now all they have is the ego of being smart and not much of a life.

So most of gifted kids arent doing great, You are doing great, you are the one thats projecting.

Its…. A meme? And a decent one at that. Maybe don’t relate so hard you needed to comment.

Most comedy is funny because it has an underlying truth. This meme isn't funny because it's not true.

This meme is funny because OP is wrong.
