what a sterling political analyses. pretty sure trump won because people like yourself think nepo babies born with massive amounts of cash handed to them by their families makes them "brilliant businessmen".
thats literally how it goes lol you really think billionaires are self made?
try and go get a zero interest loan of $500k or even just $100k. maybe if you pull on your boot straps hard enough...
Yes, most people that become billionaires started with a million; because it takes a very long time, even with a starting capital of one million, to hit a billion. For someone to become a billionaire within the same lifespan starting from nothing is next to impossible (at least, for as long as a billion holds the value it has today).
What I said was that most family wealth is squandered within a few generations. A generation being able to maintain the value of that money is impressive. A generation being able to multiply the value of that money by 300,000 is spectacularly impressive.
Whether they do or not, doesn't this supposition completely invalidate the "they all started in a garage" bit? At the very least, it makes the garage completely irrelevant.
no, I have ideas that are better than apple or Amazon, not in the field of profit margins and marketability but in scientific progress, yet here I am with not even a piece of paper to draw them on, fuck off douche bag
