At 16 I had two jobs too, but it was only because I ran out from home to other city and was homeless, and needed something to eat and I was hoping to get enough money to start studying in the University.

So it is possible, but I have a big grain of suspicion about such stories myself.

However, his jobs seems reasonably possible, as they are just performing drag concerts and doing photosessions. I haven't read it fully, tho, just glimpsed with one eye open.

I don't understand how he could support himself with paychecks form those two minimum wage jobs though, especially if they are both part-time. Even grown-ass adults can't do that. I did the math and in California it would be a little over 3k after taxes. So rent, food, bills, that money is gone. The other possibility is that he moved in with a friend in a low-rent, or rent-free situation, which makes waaaaaay more sense. Then he'd have tons left over with enough to save. (But let's be real, who is lucky enough to find two minimum wage jobs that both give you 40 hours a week?) Sorry don't mean to sound like I'm moving the goalposts, it's just what my thought process was when writing that comment.

I appreciate critical thinking and comments.

I think the author is not a professional writer and may have omitted salient details that would fill in some of the blanks.

After listening to thousands of liars over the decades in court, the style of writing seems individual and not faked.

That said, if not true, I wonder how many similar stories have happened that have gone unreported. Many, I suspect . . .
