You gotta have someone with money to back you or a unique opportunity

You could have the greatest driving skills in the world... and never get the luck of being a racing driver! Raw skill without money or luck is just that, raw, unusable talent for driving fast! I know this because I was one of those people with all the talent for driving but never had a chance to prove it. That is why I feel like I have wasted my life perfecting my skills and for what, being the fastest courier in the world making only 200$ driving 300+ miles per day 4 days a week... until I got hit while at a red light by a speeding truck and now it hurts to drive! That was over a year ago, now I'm 40, disabled and broken, mind body and soul! I had the dream of being one of the best drivers in the world... but I was born with spine issues that only got worse after the crash to where I'm in a wheelchair most days! No racing for me, no testing my skills and living my dream... Just pain and suffering. That is what I get for having a dream that only 1% of people ever get the chance of seeing come true. I would have been better off just not having a dream.

I cant
