Preach! Just make sure you're in the right assisted living center.

no and what all those who have resources around you are willing to spend on you. Is Warren Buffet's kid going to get resources thrown at them without proof just because someone wants access. Absolutely. It's not just what you do, it's also who you hang with and what they can do to help you as well. Nothing in life is solo except for the end.

Sure. I’d considered that as starting with a leg up. But yes, if you want to differentiate I’m fine with that too. And yet there’s still a hierarchy of success for such individuals and this proves that parents, money and connections isn’t enough on its own to bring about musk level successful.

Yep just like all the money made off of the gold crowd over the years thinking that we were going to get rid of FIAT currency. As if any large govt would give up that power.

That's called 10 percent talent, 40 percent hard work and 50% blind ass luck.

The Pentex Corporation would like to have a word with you in regards to investing your funds in areas that will be beneficial to both you and your family.

Your figures are off. It's 0% talent, 1% hard work, and 99% dumb luck.

Even suggesting 50% depends on the individual is the big lie to sell the American Dream.

Dumb luck thing. When you were born.

In 90s you could get kicked out of school, do a season at local freezing works get deposit on a house.

In one year.

Now it's bank of mum and dad.

Sisters house was 3 years income, ours was 5, now its 10+. No mortgage no rent no help from family.

If you were gifted say a million dollars back then and weren't an idiot you would probably be worth around ten million now.

And that's without two parents telling you what to do and helping you out.
