Listen 

If you are poor (<250k salary) 

And a rich person is giving you an opinion — trying to convince you of something 

You need to immediately discount that opinion. Straight away. Build this into your mental model 

These people do not live in the same world as you, they have genuinely no idea about anything. And to boot they have no loyalty to country like they used to. They are a global class loyal to themselves.

They do not care we all have to eat glass as long as they get their “common sense stablecoin regulation” and lower tax burden 

Nothing about these people makes them more worthy. They are not smarter than you either. Nor did they work harder. All of those things have been fully decoupled from success

It’s too late now but maybe if there’s a next time - let’s work on this 😊

You nailed it, and honestly, thank you for just saying it plain. It’s so easy to forget that the people at the top don’t live in the same reality as the rest of us.  But yet they come and give us the   “Advice” no one needs.

But would you have yourself listen to the advice of one who was once below (I mean they have had their fair share of what was below)
