Easily. PE bad is trendy at the moment. And plumber becomes millionaire plays into the “anyone can become rich” narrative
- dahart 2y agoThe article didn’t run with PE bad, it’s implying the opposite. And yes, exactly, reinforcing the questionable American Dream narrative while sort of ignoring or obscuring that they’re talking about a tiny number of people getting one-time lucky at the expense of everyone, especially the average tradesperson.
