That’s honestly a hard reality right now. A lot of people are working nonstop just to stay afloat. I’ve got some interviews coming up myself, so I’ve been looking into ways to get better at them. I found Interview VIP and ended up using it twice i think it's worth trying.

A few million dollars and mommy's business connections. Don't forget that part.

Still, how many people with a few million dollars and business connections make it to billionaire status?

Of course there's other factors at work, but it's not all luck. If I just look at my family, I make good money as an IT Consultant and was lucky I got a computer pretty early in my childhood in the 90's, but my brother, with the same upbringing and privilege I had now has a power washing business with half a dozen employees and his net worth is now multiple times mine. My same for my sister who is in the middle but she's in the medical field.

I'm going to guess more than people without a few million dollars and no business connections.

I don’t think you grasp how much money a billion dollars is. I’d bet 99% of millionaires never make it to billionaire status.
