Have you considered that you don’t know what you’re talking about and therefore shouldn’t speak on matters you don’t understand?

Have you considered that people who get rich are just better than you? Obviously other factors are at play too, but anybody who's launched themselves up a tier in wealth usually are brilliant, bold risk takers, work super hard, and create way more value for the world than you do.

If someone uses the wealth they gain to continue to gain more wealth for themself and not distribute it back to people who need it most (ie., a rich person making themself richer usually via exploitation of workers or corrupt investments) they are not better. & you sound ableist.

There are countless people who work hard, the myth we’re told will lead to the “American dream.” They work harder than any billionaire or CEO, or those who were born into money & the privilege of connections. This is propaganda you’re parroting. Find an original thought.

i worked long, long hours on a factory floor before being like hmm this isnt the life i want to live, and then i quit to try to make my own businesses. Lots of failures but eventually I found decent success! You gotta work hard *for yourself*; that's the risktaking.

Yeah I’ve worked hard. I’ve done many jobs & I consider myself luckier than others to be where I am. I’m not centering my own experience as you would like to. This isn’t about working hard. This is about you parroting classist myths. You should go work on that & educate yourself.
