Tomorrow I'm embarking on a journey to become a millionaire. I haven't had sex in 1.5 years and have become blackpilled on relationships. I have a degree and am quite smart, but the mundane 9-5 jobs I've had are only "jobs" and will get me nowhere.

After reading elon's biography, I'm convinced that 100 hour workweeks are just a mathematical equation to success... literally doing 2.5x what everyone else is doing. Building companies, etc.

I'm interested in the political necessities of this. I know I'm going to need to change my way of thinking and become 100% business minded, what resources should I seek to read?

>Elon’s biography
Did you skip the part where his dad owned a mine in South Africa and he came from wealth or how bezos parents gave him like a 250k “loan” in 95, which is like 700-900k purchasing power in today’s market? You can still make it if you grind your ass off probably tho having rich parents really helps.

No they forget the part of being born well off is the largest part of the equation.

Hard work can get you places, but 100 hour work weeks is just burning your self out for some as common as money.

i mean... i'm not exactly poor. i have a 9-5 career, bachelors degree... parents that "have my back" and paid for college

I became a millionaire through literal 100 hour weeks, but as a tradie, not as an office slave or retail wagecucking. Made myself indispensible to 2 companies, one by doing nightshift hours in a shitty plant nobody wanted to do and the other through picking up the slack.
I used the income to get loans to buy real estate, which is where my real wealth came from. Sold them when the numbers didn't make sense, put it into dividend producing stocks, REITs and a small low effort biz. Bought some land, had some kids, semi retired now.
Working loads works for a time, but has to have a purpose - build a company, invest, build dynastic wealth etc etc. Money is the currency of the poor, anon. You need to make it work for you - but you need a bit of it to start, especially if you don't come from money.
Use the money you get working to buy things that detach you form the system that you're slaving to. Make you money your slave. GL.

>muh 250k loan

You know most people that come into money-and much more money than that-most often go broke within five years right? How much grant money do state governments give businesses that fail in two years?

The only thing wrong with Bezos is he got to where he was by exploiting existing government blindspots like non-existent cross-state sales taxes and a postal service perfectly happy with losing 5 billion a year for a decade to help facilitate him and Ebay's business models. If local malls didn't have to charge sales taxes and Amazon wasn't able to maintain their razor thin 2% net profit margin (on the back of what's supposed to be a public service to allow you to send christmas cards and the occasional gift to friends) to give you your "free*" shipping he would just be another CEO of a very successful company rather than the literal Lex Luthor capeshit allegory he's become to the leftist hypocrites who act as if they're forced to purchasing from him at gunpoint.

Think about the order you've put your descriptive statements in here, anon.

>I'm going to become a millionaire.
>I haven't had sex in 1.5 years.

You're already embarking on this in a negative way. Take some time and get your head right, and if you still want to work 100hr weeks after that then go for it.
But maybe think about your motivations a bit more.

[Anonymous No.30172595]

>>30171713
I agree. And thank you anon.

Alright, well then 80

I'm pretty sure 100 only refers to the literal "waking up on your office couch" type weeks anyway, which is probably typical for an entrepreneur

Poor people focus on money and chasing that dollar. There's a time for this, especially when you're starting out but you need to move past this.
After a certain point, smart people and the common rich focus on time. they use their money to invest in skills and assets that reduce their dependence on money as a sole factor in maintaining/achieving their lifestyle.
After a certain point, the amount you earn should have little to no effect on the basic quality of life. Yeah there are luxuries, but once your assets throw off enough residual income you're 'made it'.
There's one level above this too, the 'elite'. You ain't going to hit this, this isn't some 1% shit, this is mega rich and comes from dynastic wealth building(which isn't about money actually). The currency of hte elite is control. you think Jeff B gives a fuck about another Bil? Nope, it's about having control over people. Hence why he made more from the pandemic while mom and pop stores had to shut. Money is just a score to them.
Better example: think about Billy G. He tried to form a monopoly using microsoft, got taken to court, and then 1Y later made the bill and melinda gates foundation. Now his goal it to make people eat bugs and drink shit. Literally hates people and believes in population control, urging to shoot people up with some questionable vaccine, saying farms are bad while being the largest farm owner. It's all about control.
Stop looking at billionaires and look at yourself and what you want to build. There's important stuff to learn from them, but build your own life. You aren't going to become elite so don't mimic them.

Let's not forget that Musk's is nothing without government handouts. The government literally forces his competitors to pay him money to make electric cars (or do so themselves). That is a very large part of his business model.

if you're so smart why don't you have a job that isn't dead end? you should be putting 100 hour weeks into hitting the gym and talking to real people because you type like your limp wrists would get snapped under the force of carrying 10 pounds

That's because this isn't a business board but a shitcoin scam shilling board filled with pajeets and wannabe cryptokikes who could never fathom actual hard work and dedication unless it's spending 10 hours a day shitposting and jerking off to hentai. And there's some actual merit to the /biz/ worldview as most of the faggots here who've made it did so not by hard work but by what ever other degen here does, so they don't view hard work, opening a business, etc. as a viable path to making it.

damn there are a lot of people on the board tonight who think they're smart or something.
do what the rest of us do in order to feel miserable after putting their day's energy into something that turns into shit: trade crypto.
Personally i find staking DHT the most fulfilling of the pile, but whatever makes you feel smart will do i guess

Funny cuz the average portfolio here is in the 4-5 digit range while the average business owner makes that amount in a week. Let alone the fact that all the richest people in the world are business owners except the handful of kikes who swindle the worlds wealth. You cling to trading shitcoins because you're a loser that can't name a single trait that would make you successful. And if you're here since 2017 minimum and still are a poorfolio faggot, unironically kys in minecraft, you're never gonna make it, no matter the amount of shitcoin moonshots you try to get ranjesh.
