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 😊

If we didn't have social media I don't think a salary <250k would ever be considered poor. Not because wealth distribution would be any different, but because people would be blissfully ignorant. Are we better off knowing the injustice of the world and unable to change it, or would we have been happier being unaware of the reality of the ultra rich secretly running the country? I think the latter.

<250k is figure I got from the news! That is the income level that separates the top 10% from the bottom 90. Comparison is the thief of joy, and there’s truth to what you are saying I am not telling you to want more stuff or anything. I don’t think true equality in stuff is the goal. There will always be have and have nots, and routine expressions of gratitude = the fast lane to happiness I more so point this out to help *drive* ignorance of these people in some way. Tune them out. What do they have to offer lol
