@TryingtoLava Pulling yourself up by your boot straps is Bugs Bunny logic #newtonsThridLawOfMotion

One of my ex bosses is a mutli millionaire from his company. Yes he worked hard, but the money to start it came from the husband of a friend of his wife.

@Lugwho gota have money to make money and ik that cuz i day traded for awhile remember? Buying 1 stock of a company cuz thats all you can afford is pretty pointless unless a MOASS like GME but that was legit like finding a 4 leaf clover OR crypto 2 years ago when BTC would go from 19 to 22 in a night

This is very true. While there will always be exceptions, money, luck, and contacts are also important to being successful, in addition to putting in the effort.
