Like so many, my best friend in high school had wealthy parents and he always had the newest and latest gadgets and toys every year. I wasn’t jealous because I knew that his parents were working themselves to death to maintain their wealth and my parents weren’t exactly struggling financially either, so I still received nice toys and gifts on holidays and birthdays. Instead, I loved hanging out with my friend because it meant playing in an air conditioned tree house in the summer while playing video games in his amazing basement game room in the winter. And he had the best game consoles too, right when they were released to the greater public. When he was tired of a game, especially for Gameboy, he would typically give it to me or his younger brother. You can’t be jealous of something when the person is so generous with sharing their bounty. By the time we got our licenses at 16, I was looking for old cars that needed some work but my best friend got a brand new sedan that was the first of its kind that I had seen with a digital thermostat on the dashboard. Until that point, I had only seen temperature controls for car air conditioners and heaters that are a dial or a slider that goes from zero to five. He could set the temperature in the car to 72 degrees and it would tell the a/c or heat to run according to that setting. I was impressed with his car’s heating and cooling system to say the least.
