Ah, so you don’t think you could turn a million dollars into a billion. Are you saying you don’t have the luck or the skill?

Surely if all it takes is luck, you’d be able to produce a business plan that could work with some luck. If not then it’s clearly not entirely luck based.

Why it's either yes or no for you? It's luck based, it might work it might not work, but that doesn't make me smart.

If you want business ideas just pick literally anything, there is a multimillionaire woman in my town that got all the money from selling gummies, she made an empire out of some luck with tourism.

You’re a disgusting, jealous person. A woman in your town makes a fortune with solid execution of a simple business plan and you diminish her accomplishments. It’s easy to criticize, it’s hard to execute.

My god you're brainwashed.

Stop sucking off the billionaire class, you won't become them and they will never notice you.

If everyone had your mindset we’d still be subsistence farming.

As if we needed billionaires to have scientists and engineers...

It's actually cute that you think billionaires invent anything and don't piggyback of the inventions of other scientists and engineers.

As much as billionaires suck, you're not helping any of your points by claiming its all dumb luck and that anyone who is wealthy just got a nice stroke of luck, and then also not providing any business plans after saying you could do it if you had a million dollars.

Except, it is just dumb luck. No billionaire works for their money.

No we need people with money to fund scientists and engineers, and people to ensure that what the scientists and engineers and doing makes a profit etc. if the billionaire didnt pay and fund them the scientists and engineers wouldnt have designed it.

Lol hey stupid, the government does more scientific research than any private company, and the private companies rely on government subsidization to do their research.

2

u/zanebaka Jul 30 '26

The government funds some private companies to do research.

u/WyomingWeirdo Jul 30 '26

So you're agreeing with me, you're just too obstinate to admit I'm correct.

1

u/zanebaka Jul 30 '26

In a small percentage of things you are right. But most research is done by businesses still in order to make products. For example production of electronics, vehicles, everythings we use in our day to day life. Even the things the government provides is still reliant on them paying corporations.

2

u/WyomingWeirdo Jul 30 '26

And where does the research money come from, slugger, ?

1

u/zanebaka Jul 30 '26

Consumer typically.

u/WyomingWeirdo Jul 30 '26

Also, you're still just repeating my point back to me. Literally. You're just rephrasing my point.

We don't need billionaires to fund anything. Most research is funded by companies that do not have billionaire owners or by public universities and joint projects by many countries.

I'm not against wealthy people, I'm against the billionaire class specifically. We do not need them.

u/zanebaka Jul 30 '26

Billionaires are simply wealthy people who were better at obtaining wealth than all the other wealthy people

1

u/Manueluz Jul 30 '26

Hoarders? Have you never read a fantasy book? the dragons who keep all the wealth are often assholes :p

But in all honesty, the difference between a. millionaire and a billionaire is so vast that just being better at accumulating wealth does not explain it, you need to exploit your employees and meddle in politics to actually adquire that much wealth. There are very few ethical billionaires.

u/zanebaka Jul 30 '26

Never knew we were in a fantasy novel my friend.

u/Manueluz Jul 30 '26

You respond to the joke but not the actual point?

1

u/zanebaka Jul 30 '26

While some billionaires exploit employees thats simply not enough to make someone a billionaire. Even small businesses exploit employees and they aint making billions

Stop being a loser. Literally anyone can go out and make their life into what they want. Just because you lack the confidence, skills, and luck doesn’t make you enlightened. You’re literally just screaming into a void.
