Are you sure? For example I could imagine see a dentist eventually hiring other dentists, and then more and more, exponentially expanding their business everywhere and growing a brand. It's not easy, obviously, but feasible.

You're not going to get rich doing either of these, because your income is capped by the hours you can work. This is true for a while, but if you're smart about it you could expand your business and hire others in the same profe

I don't think people in high finance have "won". I view winning on a logarithmic scale, and they're somewhere in the middle. At the top would be someone like Augustus Caesar. Below that is Bill Gates, Elon Musk, etc. At

If you get fired, then what? Even if you don't find a new source of income, you're not going to starve. Only a few hundred people starve per year in the U.S. What's the big deal? It's all just psychological issues in you
