[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the very rich people I know are white men. None of them came from money, all solid MC or LMC. But definitely had the privilege of race and sex. They’re all exceptionally smart and work-obsessed. Most are lawyers, and combined big law with smart investments to grow wealth. One also dabbled in business on the side - bought, grew, and sold a company, then reinvested. The only non-lawyer I know is a gifted computer software engineer who happened to be in the right place at the right time to join Amazon in the late 90s (when they sold books) and has worked his way to the upper echelon. [/quote] You’re old and out of touch.[/quote] Yeah very few LMC people can fathom taking on current law school debt for a shot at BigLaw, which itself has become more classist and pedigreed in last two decades.
