I don't think it's bad to get loans from your family, but I do think it shows a structural problem with society that they're necessary in order for young people to do productive stuff. This guy's got great drive, work ethic and passion for what he does; wouldn't it be a shame if he'd been in a family which couldn't have provided him with the wealth to get off the ground?

Sadly, Reddit users often fail to follow the rules a lot of the time, and downvote stuff on the basis of "I don't like that" rather than "This is not the content that this subreddit should contain." Given how popular it is to be positively vitriolic about MCR, it's no surprise you're receiving a fair few downvotes.
You should also be aware of "vote fuzzing," which is an automated reddit mechanism that adds downvotes and upvotes while keeping the same proportions. Nothing ever has 0 downvotes and a thousand upvotes or vice versa. That might account for some of it.
I hope any downvotes you did receive didn't put you off, and thanks for doing this! It's always cool to get a look at the lives of musicians from the eyes of the people around them.
