[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m feeling “rage” towards all the posts about working hard if you want to be rich. Hard work is only one part of the equation. Race, gender, mental illness, country of origin etc are also very important. [/quote] [b]Sure. But this particular author had all sorts of choices - and she chose a (generally) low-paying degree and then a (generally) low paying career. She's not some bipolar Somali refugee who was dealt a bleak hand in life. She a white girl why always was nervous about money, but who then chose a career that doesn't pay, and still is nervous about money, and mad at people who have money and don't tell her about it. [/quote][/b] Absolutely agree with you. She had choices and chose to go into a low paying profession and now complains that others are financially better off than her. She should have spoken to any Asian or middle eastern immigrant family for career counseling. They push their kids to become physicians and if they are not smart/ambitious enough dentists and pharmacists. Why? Not because pulling teeth and pushing drugs is so personally gratifying, but because of the $. [/quote]
