TIFU by calling my cousin's wife a gold digger and getting into a fist fight with my cousin who is in the special forces.
For context, I (25M) was just having a conversation with my Cousins wife (26F), who we'll call Kate, and my cousin (31M), who we'll call Isaac, for New Years morning over at his house. Isaac is a pretty rich guy who gets loads of hazard pay and has a really good salary because he's in the SASR (Australian equivalent of Navy SEALs or Green Berets). We were talking about our jobs, and I was telling them about my latest experiences up at the Iron mines in Tom Price (A mining town in the Pilbara region of Western Australia), as I am a geologist. As I started telling them jokingly about a rumour I heard of me getting a bit of a pay bump (which I doubt is gonna happen, as I am not the most efficient worker to be honest), Kate just cut me off and said "Well, Isaac still is earning more than you." Causing both me and Isaac to look at each other with confusion, but I shrugged and continued, saying "Yeah, he does, but hey, we all gotta start somewhere right?"...
