Final post: there isn't some thermodynamic rule in life that says every positive has a negative. It's possible for someone to be good looking, rich, fit, sociable - all these things (not saying I am)

It's not like some video game where you only have a limited number of stats that have to be spread across a range of attributes. If you work on yourself you can become richer, better looking, more sociable, more respected without tradeoffs. These replies are such typical cope: he can't POSSIBLY be a normie AND rich. He can't possibly be rich AND good looking. There is no rule that says this. Stop self-deceiving

You don't have to be miserable and bitter

Talk to the average boomer about how they made their money and they'll jump at the opportunity to impart their 'wisdom' onto the younger generation
> Study hard
> Get a job
> Invest in property
This mindless tracked formula may have worked during their time, but times have changed. Education is more expensive and less valuable. Well paying jobs are rare - globalisation being the most important reason. House prices are way too high - look at my example above: £100,000 PA + £100,000 deposit for a 3 bed semi - when will I be able to afford that? 40? 50? 60? Guess I better give up on the idea of having a family then...

But the most annoying thing of all is that the boomers don't see this. They think their success is due to hard work and skill. Oh sure, Tony the builder really knew what he was doing when he bought his 3 bed semi back in 1988 - he -knew- it would rise much faster than inflation. He -knew- he'd be on his way to becoming a millionaire just for having somewhere to live. Bravo Tony, what insight.

Talk to the average boomer and they're fucking ignorant. They don't know the first thing about making money, yet they think they do because the illusion of being in the right place at the right time makes them think they do. Look at someone like Trump. He's supposedly one of the best of the best at business - yet even he's massively underperformed the market since the 1980s. The point is: you pretty much couldn't go wrong with your investments in 1980-2000.

/biz/ may not be the best cross section of society but at least the people here have some idea about economic trends, interest rates, investment. At least the people here are trying to come up with business ideas. They're thinking about new technologies, cryptocurrencies, etc. - how many boomers have even HEARD of bitcoin? Most of them can't even use Google.

Fuck them

How easy is it to get your ideal gf once you're rich? I know you could find her by chance, but your odds increase significantly with wealth, right? How rich do you have to be? Anyone rich anons have stories of easily finding girls that you like? (not just one night stands)
And more importantly, what about finding 2 gf's?
