You’re making the wrong investments then. You don’t get wealthy by gently contributing to a 401(k) and hoping for insane appreciation. Average US citizen works a full-time job, 9-5 probably right? Then what do they do with their 5-9? Are they doing things that align themselves with actions that are more likely to make them money, or are they spending earnings on distractions?
Hear that, lower class? All you have to do to become a billionaire is not spend money on distractions! If you do that using your two minimum wage jobs, and also don’t spend anything on rent or food, then it will only take you 33,156 years to become a billionaire! It’s really that easy, you just have to know how to “work”.
If by actually living a life you mean things like going out with friends, playing games/fun hobbies, spending time with family, going to dinner, etc. then that’s fine! But that’s the cost of staying where you are. And on the other side, the path to wealth costs the sacrifice of these things temporarily for a period in life. Each is the cost of the other.
The difference is they went through the period of sacrifice and now they’re past it. You can’t compare their end with your beginning. And no, I’m not sucking up to them. I don’t give a shit about any of them, but what I do give a shit about is victim mindset, and people like you going online to bitch about things out of your control so you can give yourself the excuse not to start and provide yourself with the comfort that the excuses you’re making to not get somewhere better is actually the right move.

only when you believe that they actually earned it by working for it, and not how its most often through inheritence, that they raised through the ranks via Peter-Principle or that they were damn lucky in lottery or being at the right place at the right time.
Ridiculous.
In the USA you have an average annual income of 65k. From which you pay rent and living each month.
You need to be lucky in investment to be able to retire at 65 with just s million dollars.
You are talking about BILLIONS!

🤣 we are clearly on very different trajectories. Good day to you!
Goddamn, victim blame much? Most of them are trying to survive!
Sounds like a pretty lofty assumption
More lofty than your assumption that people didn’t know how to work? Continue licking that boot, I’m sure you’ll be a billionaire any day now!
👍🏼
I don’t know, how about actually living a life?

You know who doesn’t have to choose between a life with friends, hobbies and family?
Billionaires.
Why do you suck up to them? What do you hope to get out of this?

Alright man, they’re lucky and special and you’re not. Happy now? Now, where are you?
arguing with a hyper capitalist that trust the dollar more than humans /thread
But I’m sorry. You are a capitalist while I am a socialist. We won’t ever see eye to eye on this matter.
