In what ways are you privileged?

I'm in a situation were I don't have to worry about money. That might change in the future but for now I am good. The second half of my life so far no problemo with money and stuff like paying the rent, paying for a car, wining and dining etc. To tell the truth, I don't have to pay anything for all of that and I am 34 years old. I use my money for my hobbies or for gifts and presents for the family. The first half of my life, when I still lived with my parents, was different. My father is a loser who could not feed his family and who would rather go into a casino and waste the little money he made. It was like a feast if we had some bread and jelly and potato chips and lemonade in the house. But well, back then I was always slim and when the second half started I found myself in a situation were I could eat and drink as much as I wanted and what ever I wanted , I gained massive weight and I am struggling with it since then. There is a price for everything on this planet, I swear.
