Why aren't the rich people doing philosophy? Why is it always unemployed NEETs and poor people, and they just provide excuses as to how being rich doesn't matter that much and give excuses for not working hard. Seem like sore losers to me.

Academia does have a pyramidal structure. But the current major philosophers of note are all either associate or full professors making six figures. It takes decades to build a coherent body of work.

Philosophy is a cope. Money is a cope. Sex is a cope. Power is a cope. Everything is a cope.

exactly. imagine a little child intersted in philosophy instead of playing with other kids, running around, climbing trees. surely a disorder, and parents are faggots.
