I have difficulty believing that beyond the rare exception, those who earn over £1500 a day are nothing more than rent seekers who's staying power is more political than based on work and skill.
- nickpsecurity 11y agoOh I agree there.
- bgilroy26 11y agoIf securing a $2300/day job through political means is easy why doesn't everybody do it?
- nickpsecurity 11y agoExactly. It certainly takes strength in the skill of politics. While some are naturals, it's an art and science that's anything but simple. The people on top were often groomed for it by experts (parents or whatever) over literally decades. They also get lots of practice during that time. That's why I tell people who want to be rich or powerful to master people skills, maintain right image, go to right schools, get the right connections, and deal/negotiate their way to top manager by manger, boardroom by boardroom.
