["I'm the guy who gets mad at his friends for not living up to their full potential.", 'it is frustrating to watch i agre', 'like they introduced me to this self-employe gig they only do part time...and now I pay rent and bills with it, plus save some extra....and they still want to do it part time and keep their dead-end jobs they complain about!']
that is unfortunate, hopefully you can give them guidance
I expect a lot more from my friends.  They're intelligent and highly capable people...but I feel like they're not living up to their full potential
