I believe luck is where preparation meets opportunity, so I think I agree with Hildy on this one, even if that’s not what he meant.

And for fucks sake - It’s not like there’s a huge secret to building wealth over time. It’s fairly straightforward for most people who know enough not to take on a $100K+ frivolous lawsuit bill or tie their cash up in sci fi books no one wants.

I know teachers who retired with $3 or $4M in the bank, not even including pensions or social security. The fact that Pat is 43 and still has no assets to his name is absolutely hysterical.

Having a lot of money is almost always an indicator that you possess intelligence or other valuable talents and abilities. There is an extremely small subset of rich people who have won the lottery/gotten a big inheritance or life insurance payout from a loved one's passing, but statistically speaking almost all of those people go broke in a matter of years (See: Nicole Robinson's inheritance from her dead faggot dad). Musk co-founded the most popular payment processor in the world, then founded the most successful electric car company in the world (1 of 2 that did not need bailout in 2008), he founded the most successful space company in the world, and he certainly possesses higher levels of intelligence than someone who "graduated" high school with a 1.7 GPA, didn't finish college, and flunked almost all of his math/science classes.

This is similar to my coworkers and myself.
