How many "Commoners" do you know that own entire apartment buildings? Seems more like the pastime of princelings and Princes to me. "Just a few million on a small passive income investment... Better hold it off the market for a bit to lock in the best rate make it grow."

I mean maybe I’m the idiot for trying so hard. @DeanPreston and @conniechansf get to write their own exemptions to tax laws while pretending to be Commoners Just Like You. It’s a great gig 💰

Makes a tremendous difference, to be sure! I use "princeling" as a class designation: accredited investors who can do something like buy an apartment building, invest in a hedge fund. Neither good nor bad itself; just means you have power. Matters most what you do with that power

My past is as open as my LinkedIn page. 😉 You find the 65 on there; not much else to my credit. I represent the way good people can fall through the cracks while others accumulate enough wealth to make it to the next generation. We've already established your resume is better.

The thing that scares them, and maybe you, is that I do know how the system works. I know what I'm talking about. And yet I'm unencumbered by ponderous wealth, and connected to the poorest and most vulnerable among us—I know what it's like more than any millionaire or billionaire
