It is, it has been done, statistically when it comes to financial success America is fast becoming one of the countries where its most unlikely to go from rags to riches.
Its not a lie, its big data crunching the numbers that are out there, and those numbers say if you are poor you are most likely going to end poor, or perhaps dirt poor.
- altr3g0 13y agoNothing against you or the person who did that research, but: fuck statistics. Eventually one gets to defy them!
- Thatguise 13y agoWhy don't you go back to youtube comments, or better yet the first grade?
- delluminatus 13y agoSeriously? Fuck statistics?

- Thatguise 13y agoYeah my mistake I shouldn't have used "rags to riches" since no country has ever had as a statistical point. No, what I meant which is what you are talking about is "upward mobility" and that is exactly what is going down in America: the plausibility of reaching a higher economical status than the one you were born in to, not necessarily becoming a millionaire. That was the American Dream, and right now the average American has the same chances of upward mobility than the average citizen of a third world country.
