Watched the Olympics today. Got to see 20 year old Wemby win Silver for France. That is, the 7’4”, uncircumcised millionaire Wemby who was taller than adult me at 9 years old.
It was a nice reminder of what I’ve come to learn about adult life. No matter how hard you work, you will never catch up to the people who are just luckier than you. Having well-connected parents trumps any talent or intelligence you might have. You can improve your life, but your peak life experience that you earn is somebody else’s baseline, and there’s more of them born everyday.
It’s not just the super rich or freak athletes either. The cute girl with big tits gets the well-paying HR internship at the local bank. The handsome dude can make six figures selling used cars because “he looks trustworthy.” Hell, I met a dude that didn’t have to work because his parents passed away young, and their life insurance policies set him up for life. That must suck if you have good parents (which he did), but not when your parents are evil narcissists.
It gets even worse. People you think are poor or average Joe’s may be quiet millionaires, even some of your friends. Sometimes their family has a few rental properties that covers all their expenses, so they work for fun money. Sometimes it’s a college girl that gets $10k a month from her trust fund (a girl I met actually). See, when you’re a small-time millionaire, you don’t buy Lambos and Rolexes. You rent a nice apartment, live off accrued interest, and enjoy a stress free life knowing you beat the broken system. Recession? Unemployment? Who cares. You don’t work for a living.
Oh btw, these aren’t the kids of bankers or doctors. Plenty of working-class folks still have savings, trust funds, college funds, and inheritance to pass to their offspring. How? By not spending their money on stupid shit. Have you ever wondered how your parents worked their whole lives and somehow have nothing to show for it? It’s because they’re dumb.
Eventually, you’ll peak at your job, and you’ll watch younger dudes who don’t even need to work roll up to work in a nicer car than you, get promoted over you, and go home to their hot girlfriend. You’ll work super hard, and yet you’ll stop progressing. You’ll realize you’ve peaked, and while your life has improved, you’re still lifemogged by dudes younger than you. The dudes your age that were luckier will continue up the ladder until they peak as well, but at a much higher rung than you.
None of your problems are your fault because their is someone out their that avoided that problem simply by being lucky. Can’t manage your money? I know rich dudes who can’t manage money either, but they have enough that it doesn’t matter.
You picked the wrong parents. That’s all that matters in life.
