[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a phenomenon of late-stage capitalism where it is not enough to make a solid wage doing something worthwhile and interesting. You have to be the best in a winner-takes-all workd or else you are a prole destined for a life of poverty.[/quote] Lol this. Plus Americans like to buy lots of toys and dream of hitting it big. A lot of us know people who have had this kind of luck. I lived next door to an ordinary middle kid in a nice middle class neighborhood. Son of a F500 corporate engineer. Made it to HBS and an early start at Amazon and later made about $40M being a CEO somewhere. Was on the cover of Fast Company. If you know people who have made it, or are close enough, it's believable you could also get lucky.[/quote]
