I’m just trying my best to spread some hope. Is this not a good place to do that?

No problem offering hope, hope is important. People should see both sides. People who have blind hope because of one case and then drop $20K on a program because they promise to work as hard as you did, is bad. That's why so many people get caught up with MLM schemes, end up spending more money than they make, and quietly disappear into the ether. It's cool to talk about your experience. Your goals seems to be to motivate others and that's where I think it's fine but I think others should balance it. Both sides can be true.
