Yeah, this is why the rich get richer and the poor pretty much stay the same or get even more left behind. It is difficult to get to the rich's level and earnings, when starting with a much smaller fund. There are some that are able to do it though. Winning the lottery, being a breakout actor/content creator, being early in crypto. There are some who are able to do it by working their butts off in their field and being the best, but a lot of times, it is almost impossible to become rich through normal means. That is why crypto and Web3 has the potential to be disruptive and change the status quo.
The few (percentage-wise) that make it, tend to be very lucky - but the majority of people will never come close. the best anyone "normal" can really wish for, is to get slight increases in quality of life, but know it is never going to compare to the gains in wealth that the 0.1% will get.
Yeah, I agree. And that is the sad truth in life.
