My wife's ex died in poverty. He spent most of his life partying with his friends and pretending to be a big shot, when in reality he lived off an inheritance. When that ran out, he expected his wife (my wife now) to support him while he spent her wages entertaining his friends. He died last year in a one-room shack that was once a toolshed, never really having "made it" by himself.
He, like many other people, never accepted the cold, hard fact that the world owes nobody a living, and that each individual must earn their living on their own.
