Yes, god yes. If I had a dime for all the sad lonely G&T students I connect with on forums, from my past, etc. who all say the same shit, I'd be slow rich myself.
Getting rich slow is a scam because at 18 you put your head down and focus on your studies. Then when your head comes back up at 22, nobody cares what your grades were, Chad dropped out to run his dad's company, Brad runs an incubated startup, Stacy and Laz just joined Greeklife and are now set with a network of Ivy-level professionals. You search for six months for entry-level work and end up taking a role at Brad's startup for 70% of the pay you hoped for.
You put your head down again and grind out the work. You bring it up 2 years later and find you've been promoted into an estranged position because people were playing political games while you were trying to develop your skill set.
You change over to work at Chad's company, and you notice Chad has replaced all the pictures of his dad with pictures of himself. You put your head down again and throw all of your money into crypto and investments, this time for 4-5 years. You learn from your mistakes and make it to an okay level, maybe even manager/sr. manager. You finally feel great bragging about your stacks and job, so you take to social media to do it, only to realize you're 30 and all your friends have kids. Nobody gives a shit about your car or your job now, really, unless it's to be bitter about it. The measure of success is now the family unit.
So you go to the only place that will hear your ranting and raving. Welcome to /biz/.
