Just because you can’t make sense of something doesn’t mean it doesn’t make sense

mostly agree but you're wrong about a few things

children are expensive, housing is expensive, education is expensive

jeff bezos wasn't born rich

>children are not expensive
They cost a fuckload of time. Which quickly becomes the most expensive thing you have as you progress through life.
>taxes are low for what you get in exchange
Lol

Money is a means to the end of escaping the life of slavery that is work. Marriage is for simple animals like wage workers. While it is true that the only "work" which matters is that which you find delight in, it does not need to involve money, which would only defile its proper enjoyment.

there are zoomers and autistic schizos here that have a very arrogant and incel-like idea that they only need to hyperfocus on one topic to make it. they lack general knowledge and common sense. you have a very low chance of making it until you get older and wiser after having years of reasonably healthy habits and having been exposed to different hobbies, life challenges etc.

>money doesn't make you happy
better to cry on a yacht than in a tent on the street
>being born rich is a negative
Nepo babies prove that's wrong
>work doing something you love and you will never work again is true
Probably true, though the NEETs here will whine about it
>retirement is a childish fantasy and bad for your health
FACTS
>you can’t invest your way to become wealthy in a timely manner, you can only gamble
Depends--if you have a high enough income from other sources, definitely possible to use it wisely. You have to be good enough to get those high incomes (ex. law firm partner, investment bank MD, etc).
>trading is a meme
Truth, unless you're obscenely good at math and at a prop shop
>leverage is a meme
See above
>lotto is a meme
Yes
>video games, twitter, chan, reddit, youtube all of social media is a net negative financial for 90% of you
Yes, though I think youtube has more potential than the rest since there are lots of educational channels
>your wife is the most important financial decision you will ever make
For 99% of men, yes
>children are not expensive
>housing is not expensive
>transportation is not expensive
>food is not expensive
>education is not expensive
Generally agreed if you're willing to take cuts elsewhere (say by living in a low COL area)
>taxes are low for what you get in exchange
Depends where you live. Florida? Sure. California? Not so much.
>being rich doesn’t make you better but the rich are probably rich because they are better than you
Generally accurate, though a lot of the rich are also rubes who lucked out on an asset that was handed to them.
>there’s never been more opportunity to change your income in the history of the world
Yes--facts.

All in all not bad, though has some incorrect takes

So many of the rich just sucked on corporate cock for decades--these hideously corrupt edifices--inevitably they end up just as corrupted. So, no, especially on that point: the rich are worse people than you and me.

>>53590498
>children are not expensive
This is more true than I would've originally thought. To be clear, you are going to spend money on your baby, but it's maybe a fraction of what you spend on yourself. Everything they eat is like a tenth of your portions. It's not life changing money.

I was born poor. You wanna swap negative childhood stories? I bet I win
