In the end we all end up buried in a wood box if you’re lucky enough. No one wins shyt in the long run

It's like 195 million working age Americans in this country, how many businesses can be started?

That message isnt for 195 million people. It's for the very select few leaders and/or lone wolves.

Also, if it isnt possible for everyone to reach true financial freedom (outside of completely living outside the construct of capitalism) then how can everyone achieve the American Dream?

it's one of those things that sounds good in a movie but doesn't ode much basis to reality

it's too simplistic is what I'm getting at.


Exactly great line. But this is real life, the working man has a family to feed and he can't do it from a jail cell.

I dont know who y'all is, but my message isnt for everyone.

It exposes the inherent flaw in the system we're told to participate in, the American financial structure is a pyramid scheme in itself, designed to benefit the leaders handsomely while keeping a permanent working class to satiate them.

I'm telling the followers to shed their sheep skin and make a transition into being a producer, a creator, a facilitator- because as the premise of this thread suggest, the working man is a sucker (if he stays a working man).

Respect, brother.

Clown shyt. The reason people go the criminal route is they don't want to put the work and time it to go legit and it doesn't pay as well without a lot of hard work. High risk-high reward. You go to med school you will be 6 figures and a millionaire. You get the right degree you will be 6 figures and maybe get there too.

My problem is dudes living that life act like theyre owed some kind of profiles in courage award. I always tell young brehs, look at the sentences people are getting for living that life. You put in 8 years of hard core studying from 14-22 and you can effectively do anything you want in this world. That 5-10 bid you caught you could have put all that energy in school.

EDIT: and OP you seem to have forgot how that movie ended :sas2:

We're not suckers, the system is designed and broken to make us look like one.
I hate work for that reason, spending so much time helping other people get rich while you get crumbs. But ya own business can be just as hard and you still working for crumbs.
I want the best of both worlds :yeshrug: Part time work, full time pay.

DEPENDS ON YOUR DESIRES. SOME PEOPLE JUST WANT TO PUT FOOD ON THEIR TABLES WHILE DOING SOMETHING FULFILLING. PEOPLE JUST WANT TO BE COMFORTABLE.

THAT'S NOT MY GOAL BUT I CAN'T TALK DOWN ON A GUY THAT IS CONTENT WITH THAT. IF HE CAN LOOK BACK ON HIS LIFE WITH NO REGRETS THEN THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME.

Work and purchase stock in growing companies.

Best of both worlds.
