Bro, you are actually so privileged. It's obvious you are, otherwise you wouldn't be posting here. Most Americans and most people on this PLANET do not have anywhere near to your networth. What's with this image you posted? Is that supposed to be how you feel? Seems REALLY RACIST to me. Don't you know all the oppression and violence black people have had to deal with? If that man had had half the chances you've had in life, he'd be a millionaire by now. Think about it.

Ok I take back my earlier encouraging statement

Fortunes are created with leverage, and the two biggies are time and debt. If you can borrow $1m and make $2m with it, you end up with a free million.

Are you literally retarded

First, banks DO do that, through venture financing. Further, they have access to Fed rates and offer rates that are always higher than the rate they borrow at. So they are almost guaranteed profit.

Further, if you're going to borrow a million, you incorporate an LLC for a thousand bucks and it does the borrowing. If you somehow, SOMEHOW manage to lose 100% of the money, the company goes bankrupt and you're fine.

Even if you are the biggest brainlet in the history of humanity and take a $1 million dollar personal loan and somehow lose it all, you go bankrupt and you're free in a handful of years.

Let me recap

you:
>hur de hur hur durhur banks don't do that
me:
>yes they do, they borrow from the fed and loan out at a higher rate, the spread is free money!
you:
>dur dur de dur if I can't get that there's no point durrr

Christ, you ARE poor.

>no sane bank is going to give your shitty freshly founded assetless LLC a million bucks loan retard.

Holy fuck, you didn't know about the spread between Fed rate and bank prime, but now you're an expert on how business loans work!

Actually, that IS how it works, they don't make you co-sign, your personal financial history is relevant but if you've got $150k in the bank they'll lend you a million no questions asked.

This is because people who know how money work make a decision based on a relatively small set of numbers that evaluate the bank's risk in lending. They start out with the spread between their rate and the rate they're going to offer you. Then the applicant's history is considered -- a guy in great financial shape, say who's extremely liquid and has a good history, reduces their risk. Then there's an evaluation of your proposed business, which under a couple mil is basically a moderately informed gut check by the loan officer. Low risk, high upside -- here's your check! That's how you get a business loan.

It actually is that easy. The system is set up to make it easy to get rich. You need to get out of the mindset of poverty.

The difference is that banks are the middlemen between the fed and you, so it's much easier for them to make a profit

>they'll lend you a million no questions asked
No they fucking won't dude, if they would I'd just pocket that million and then close down the LLC

They would lend the LLC 150k, 200k max (knowing its owner's history). Maybe after a year or two of seeing the plan is being followed they'd give it 400k. But a million right off the bat, no way

Yes, that's a good thing. The baked-in spread means their risk per loan starts out lower than it is for a private citizen, which means they can tolerate more risks and make more loans. Which means more people can start businesses.

Sounds like your expert ass just realized you can walk away with a couple hundred thousand with just about zero effort if you wanted to. Congratulations! Start making money.

That said, I personally know a guy who has been legally scamming banks for years on "construction equipment leasing companies", just a wonderful cycle of start business -> buy equipment -> pay self salary until bankruptcy -> bankruptcy, lose most (but not all) equipment to creditors -> fold business, start new business with remaining equipment as collateral -> get new loan. Heavy equipment holds its value well, so he's always got collateral. His motto: "If you owe the bank a couple thousand, you've got a problem. If you owe the bank a couple million, they've got a problem."

Jesus Christ, you are going to be poor forever. The yield on an investment is proportional to its risk. You risk losing in order to gain. The poor take no risks ever. They get some shitty job and then they go to it until they die.

And, I should add, I got here by maxing out my line of credit to buy BTC and ETH, pretty much entirely missing LINK unfortunately, and taking profits at every 3x to stuff into Boomer mutual funds which, thanks to Trump, themselves kept going up. Also, so far I'm up $350k this year, just from going into money market funds for the corona dip and buying back in after the bottom. Most profitable two phone calls I ever made.

Now I play with shitcoins for fun.

But it started with me deciding BTC and ETH were going to be huge, working every hour I could get at a shit grocery store job, and constantly maxing my line of credit to get every single BTC and later ETH I could get my greedy hands on. I could've done better. I pussied out after BTC crossed $11k and cashed out, so I could've almost doubled, if I'd taken LINK seriously I'd be worth 8 figures USD right now, but if I had been wrong, or too stupid to take profits appropriately, I would've been bankrupt and financially ruined.
