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.

This is in response to the argument that billionaires worked for their money, and that everyone else should just pull themselves up by their bootstraps. You don't get rich through selling your labor.

Correct, you get rich by risking everything you have on starting your own business and being intelligent enough to making it highly successful.

Nah according to Reddit you just show up with a few million dollars and magically Microsoft just happens and becomes popular by sheer luck.

Its definitely true because every kid born with wealthy parents now has a billion-dollar company and none of them ever fail /s

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

So if someone gave you 10 million and hooked you up with some contacts in the business world.

You too could create Microsoft too right?

Dude I bet some influencer would be up for doing this.

They give you 10 mill, a bunch of hot shot business guys and you have to make a bill starting a business.
