Historically, he is what you would call the first “American Dream” documented so well. On top of that, he invented a whole lot of stuff lol. Franklin still said fuck that, came back to America, and did more impressive work in printing and politics than his father, brother, or governor ever did. He never got those letters of reference, so he was essentially screwed by the governor too. In Philly he did more work as a printer, impressed the governor of Pennsylvania with his work, and was promised letters of reference from the governor so he could find funding when he sailed to England (because he was so good). His brother tarnished his name in New York City (so he couldn’t get a job there) so Franklin ended up moving to Philadelphia all by himself. When he was a late teen Franklin said fuck his brother, dad, and Boston, and left. During weekends, only self-posts are allowed.Īll according to Franklin’s autobiography: Franklin began his life as an indentured servant to his brother James' printing company in Boston, and his father Josiah was not supportive in Franklin thriving or exploring life outside of this job.
