Getting rich is easy.
Staying rich is the hard part.

If you look at literally every lottery winner, you'll see that the money actually brought great strife to their life cause they didn't know how to handle it and blew it on stuff like hookers and cars.

so fucking true.

warning, text wall inbound

My aunt is a teacher and my uncle is a real estate broker (part time, most of the time he volunteers for their local church and manages their shit, yeah I know it's weird) and they are middle class. They have a small house on the edge of a city and are living okay but aren't what you call wealthy. They like to spend their money, and they are always buying gifts for my cousin, a thousand dollar gaming computer, a new iphone x, an apple watch, an xbox one with a ton of games, etc.

My parents on the other hand, my dad as an orthodontist and my mom stays at home but used to work in marketing, never spend any money and are upper middle class, bordering the rich territory. We live in a big house in the suburbs

Both families grew up in extreme poverty in the city, but my dad and mom busted their asses to get into good colleges, and get good jobs, and then my dad busted his ass to start an orthodontics practice with his friend from dental school. My aunt and uncle just got through it until he became a real estate broker. My dad only works 3 days of the week, and they work 5.

Being rich doesn't mean you're smart, there are plenty of ways to be rich without being smart. But poor people are usually stupid unless they were born in like a third world shithole with no chance at all. If you're poor in America it is your fault, you can't be smart and not figure out how to get a job in tech or finance from any start in america.

Another habit to take is to live slightly under what you can afford.

Want an Audi A6 and have the money for it? Buy the A4.
You can buy a 500k dollar house? Buy a 350k one.
Imo the only thing you shouldn't hesitate to spend on is your nutrition, health, fitness and education.

Of course sometimes you can fully enjoy your lifestyle doing a nice travel or buying yourself something you really really want but it should be the exception, not the rule.

definitely true. my parents lived in a shitty apartment for the first 5 years of their marriage without kids, and only bought a house when they were pregnant with me and my dad's practice was taking off, and because of this, my dad paid for our house, (1 mil) in full without a mortgage.

I appreciate the acknowledgement. We work tirelessly and it's a thankless job. Crypto is how I take a break from the blackpilling world of pro-white activism but it's good to know there's a lot of us in here becoming successful while getting our money out of the hands of the Jewish bankers.

I've looked at the data. Upward mobility isn't "highly unlikely".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socioeconomic_mobility_in_the_United_States

>Similarly, 65 percent born in the bottom fifth stay in the bottom two-fifths.

35% of the people born at the lowest rung of society have a chance of upward mobility.

You still haven't address my question of why immigrants are coming to the US if there's an "highly unlikely" chance of upward mobility.

If capitalism is so bad? What's a better system that actually works?

You are actually correct. Few will believe you, bc honestly most people on here want to believe otherwise either because they are spoiled and want to relive their concience or they're the opposite and want to feel better.

In reality everybody does his best to keep his position and keep everybody in his (not literally ofc) that's why you're correct.

Facts are on our side, however let me tell you an anecdote
>be me, son of gardener and housewife
>dad has accident, both parents without a job
>5 siblings living normally, now poor
>4 become teachers 1 an engineer

You almost never will see sth like this, everybody in my enviroment (we grew up in a low income, high migrant background area) has either no job, quit school, is criminal or just a good-for-nothing. Capitalism creates poverty and areas with people with no perspective for a brighter future out of necessity bc it is an outdated model.
