Human filth. This subreddit motivates me and should motivate everyone here more than they already are. This should motivate you to not give anyone like this the time of day. Apparently, no one has ever gotten rich on their own.

Lol.

Thoughts?

Here's another gem. I guess all of those self-made solo entrepreneurs exploited themselves for their own profit.

It's so bad I'm thinking it literally has to be sarcasm. Or at least, that's what my brain really wants to believe. I'd really like to think that people aren't that selfish, delusional, or ignorant but apparently they are so the jokes on me lol.

Thoughts?

Any of y'all remember the interview that r/antiwork moderator did on Fox News where he got absolutely humiliated? Most of these guys can't even string a coherent economic argument together, let alone set conditions. Let them talk their own ears off while they sit on the Sidewalk.

We've already concluded that we don't have anything useful to learn from that community.

Reddit and the fastlane forum are two different worlds.

We think we can.
They think they can't.

The crazy part about it, is that we are both right.

I think this is getting too much. You posted reddit crap once, fine, but please stop posting it. I don’t personally come here to see this filth, there’s a reason why I’m not on reddit. If I wanted to see this stuff in my life, I wouldn’t hang on the fastlane. This isn’t helping one in any way as far as I see.

A better thing for you to do is post a progress thread, share some of your own learnings, or open a discussion on a topic that can help people in their fastlane journey or even in their lives.

I see none of them have googled "What percentage of millionaires are first generation?".

The answer is about 80%.

Reddit is good for asking the occasional technical question, but that's about it.

So, these people feel stuck and see no way out of their boxes? How sad for them but fortunate for us.

Honestly dont know what you expected, most of Reddit is a shithole of laziness and self-victimization, Antiwork being the epitome of that.

That is, in their own perspective based on what they currently see on the mainstream media. Some of the Billionaires we see on headlines came from already rich people. There is some truth to it but not the whole truth, if they dig further.

  • Bill Gates before Microsoft entered Harvard because he was already a smart person and a son of a successful Attorney who gave him $50k when Microsoft blew up.
  • Warren Buffett before Acquiring Berkshire Hataway is a son of a congressman which enabled him to have more connections which is a major contributor of his business growth.
  • Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk had already rich parents before starting their respective business. Elon through receiving $300k from his dad.
  • Lee Kuan Yew, before being the First Prime Minister of Singapore, is a son of a Privileged Family according to his own biography.
  • Henry Sy, a Filipino Real Estate Tycoon started from scratch when he started SM as a Department Store in Manila.
  • Soichiro Honda literally started from scratch when he and his team built Honda which was ravaged by the Wars and the Fuel Shortage.
  • Henry Ford before the Ford Motor Company is a son of the poor farmers which drove his curiosity to making car engines and is a foundation in starting many companies.
  • Same goes with Diosdado Banatao, the Filipino Bill Gates who has parents worked for the Rice Fields in Cagayan Province but made a fortune selling critical parts of the computer.
In conclusion, the notion of “To be rich is to born rich”, has some truths to it but should not be used as a gospel because there are more people who start from nothing to millionaires who are not mentioned on the Mainstream Media, unless you are watching some TV Shows like MyPuhunan, a Filipino TV Series which featured some Millionaires. But be wary that most of these paid them to be seen on TV which they will speak the partial truth.

P.S. This is part of my practice as being a Critical Thinker. You can challenge my statement on this.

P.P.S Time to use Reddit as a source of Customer Wants and Needs rather than a source of Entertainment.

P.P.P.S I suddenly remembered about the Jun 12 2023 API Changes which drove reddit into a Firestorm, but some users said it was a big RedditMoment.

There are lots of people who started with nothing and have scaled that mountain.
