no. hang around rich people enough and you get real tired of how fucking retarded they are

>>54673671
Fuck off boomer apologist.

No you idiot
Wealth is 98% what family you were born in

A kld born in a Venezuelan favela literally has 0% chance of making it

>A kld born in a Venezuelan favela literally has 0% chance of making it
Pablo Escobar disagrees

>>54673745
>You have to become a literal murderer, a torturer, and a kidnapper to get rich
>You have to constantly look over your shoulder in fear of getting shot by drug competition in order to get rich

that's not making it
thats torturing, murdering, and kidnapping people

>>54673711
This is cope. Even that Venezuelan kid can join the government, become a crime-lord, or simply immigrate. There are tons of examples of immigrants becoming successful.

>>54673671
would rather just be a pleb

>>54673671
the rich I meet in the like $5 - $10 million range impressed me way more than any turbo rich tard I've met

>There are tons of examples of immigrants becoming successful.

People always love pointing out the 2% of people that make it from tough situations and ignore the 98% of people that simply just weren't lucky, it astounds me everytime

For every immigrant that happened to get their name looked at randomly on the list, there's 100 ignored ones

For every kid that rose to the top of the drug trade, there's 100 that were fucking shot to death

For every person lucky enough to land a government job there, there's hundreds that got denied

It's not about incentive or initiative, it's about being born in the right place for the vast majority of humanity

Never was anything great achieved without danger

You can’t reason with these people it seems they’ve mentally blocked that life is very lucked based because I’d they were to accept otherwise the myth they’ve built for themselves would diminish

> The boomers were right after all.
> Can't find a job? Dude just walk in, give him a firm handshake and look him in the eyes lmao
> What do you mean your job can't pay for your mortgage, car, groceries and utilities?
I can't wait for every last one of these retards to die out.

>>54673871
That's not danger you retard
That's ending the lives of countless others to esteem your own

Go ahead, take that path, I dare you

>>54673836
Look at all the people Pablo Escobar paid off
You're working at a checkpoint, a bunch of trucks roll up and you're handed a suitcase with a million dollars to look the other way.
You could be born in a venezulean favela and spend your entire life making minimum wage, get a security job and get a big payout from a drug dealer. Then you can go from a shanty to a condo, and make it

>>54673745
getting shot by police at the age of 44 is not making it. If you can't enjoy your wealth without having to constantly worry about murder or arrest, that is not even better than the life of a middle class wagie.

>>54673671
>Has anyone else unironically come to the conclusion that most poor people deserve to be poor and that most rich people earned their money through taking the initiative?

Yes. See pic.

>>54673866
It's not luck. It's not hard for a Venezuelan to go to another Latin American country. There are tons of them everywhere. And as for the other scenarios? Ability. They were smarter and more capable and weren't so easily stopped by mere luck.

How do you think this world works? You think that $100 in your pocket has the purchasing power it has because of some magical divine universal law? No, it has power because it's enforced on the world at gunpoint, and if third-worldies try to say fuck your dollar then they get drone striked by the US military. For every winner there is a loser, it's a basic fact of life.

>>54673671
i have come to the conclusion that life is 100% out of my control.

>>54673671
no

>>54673671
Well, anon. I agree with you that I don't deserve to be rich. But man, I may be autistic, but I really think that I should be able to afford rent, eat 3 decent meals, and save a bit on a working class salary.

Troll thread.

Honestly though, it really is all just luck in the end, as much as saying that pisses off everyone else here and elsewhere. For successful entrepreneurs, it's about coming up with the right thing at the right time. For crypto, it's all about timing the makret. For stocks, it paid extremely well to be early (same goes with real estate).

>>54673861
Most of them were probably Boomers that had the greatest economy ever handed to them, and they're still convinced that their success had nothing to do with that, and that somehow they're an anomaly race of superhuman geniuses that were able to do it while everybody after them is just lazy.

>>54673866
The reason that certain immigrants are so successful is because they come from close knit families that chipped in money to help them start a business. This is why the rich try to hard to break up the nuclear family model because it's such a huge threat to them. That's why there are so many rich Indian and Asian families in America. Koreans literally collude with each other and help each other cheat on their taxes and game the system.
