    Privileged: I grew up in the beautiful countryside in rural Ireland, where I often visit.

    Unprivileged: I don't come from Dublin where all of the Jobs are so I have to pay expensive rent. I wish I could live at home with mammy and daddy in Ranelagh to save more.

    Privileged: You work for the music festival, you receive a wristband that will give you access to crew camping and other areas such as areas you might be guarding.

    Unprivileged: Festival punter with normal wristband, will give you access to gigs and festival camping but lots of areas to do with running the festival will be closed to you.

    Ways im privileged:

    Im a millionaire. My family are millionaires. I could do nothing for my entire life and I'll be fine. I understand the a large swathe of people have to worry about their next paycheck but I do not.

    Ways im underprivileged:

    Being raised and groomed to be a financial expert in terms of the ins and outs of everything related to money means that I was homeschooled a lot - Not many friends outside the circle introduced by my family.

    Privileged - I'm a straight white male, so I've never had to worry about facing discrimination based on my sexuality, my skin colour or my gender.

    I had a very comfortable upbringing, with parents and grandparents who saw the value in teaching me to read and write before I started primary school. It gave me an enormous head-start and a love of, like, reading and stuff.

    Unprivileged - A tendency towards depression and anxiety from a very early age meant that I missed out on a lot of stuff as a teenager and in early adulthood.
