I got this comment as a reply to my post:

You can get a job and do your math, too.
Other people do more with less, why can't you?
Answer:

Greed and entitlement.

I feel quite offended, that I have to care about someone else who “do more with less”. What does it have to do with greed? I do not get the thought process behind it.

I wonder if I am overreacting. I would feel better if they just said to get a job, but it felt more like they are trying to make fun of me.

EDIT: Thanks everyone for thoughtful replies! Now I feel a lot better - I was in very bad mood when I got the reply above, so I felt even more attacked. Still, I should learn to not get overly offended like this.

    Having read through your other post that person was being weird, got heavily downvoted and it’s perfectly reasonable that you got offended. It’s not even clear what his point was, because your post wasn’t about money. So, they were presumably jumping to a lot of conclusions and then responding to an imagined different post.
