Well I only talk about some of the things to some people, and most of these things would cost a few thousand dollars so I've just never had the opportunity to do them before.

Second you have to do for you, when you start doing the things you talk about people will change their perception of you.

If you are already in the middle of doing what you want to do and people are still being discouraging, it's likely because people want whats familiar and you changing your habits would force them to change their perceptions of you.
Yeah, I agree with all of that! Hopefully it'll get better the more stuff I can do to prove them wrong. And that 2nd part is definately true, it shakes up their life and it's almost like finding out one of your friends or family members has a multiple personality disorder!
