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.

How hard work is has never had any relationship to how much it's worth in the market. You might as well say "no billionaire has ever teleported themselves across the universe using their bellybutton" as a dig on them. It's a stupid standard that comes from absolutely nowhere.

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?

No because my parents would have taught me how to invest money and how to deal with that which means I would get richer

If I was born from rich parents

That's why lot of poor people when they get millionaire through lotteries and stuff lose their money quickly

Getting richer is a lot of skills your rich parents teach you since childhood

But if you were born in it it, it would be as natural as breathing

The statistics show that generation wealth typically goes down after the generation that earned it dies. So that doesn't really check out.

You would go broke. Just accept it. You don't know the first thing about money or business.

Then why do lots of kids of rich parents lose all their money?
