How to get rich in capitalism and democracy
Two ways.
Have a moat
Beware and aware of game balancing norms (i.e., communism, socialism, monogamy) that makes being too successful dangerous or more complex.
How to get rich? First you need business moat. Something you can do but no one else can. Or something you can do and few others can. The bigger the moat the bigger the margin. What about if you don’t have a business?
Well… You do. Working for other people is a business. Tax and transports are expenses and salary is revenue. A business moat like IQ allows you to do jobs most people can’t.
A mensan will earn the same working blue collar jobs but would earn more being programmers or CEO. Then? Then beware of game balancing. Because you have a moat society will try to undermine it.
If some moats create obvious inequality of outcome, someone somewhere somehow will say it’s wrong.
You can learn literally 100 times faster than others. I know I can A graduate math level courses if I have another troubled student to study together in 2 days. But the game balancing norms will say you got to finish education in 16 years like everyone else.
You can work jobs that require iq. Some, often leftists, will say that iq tests and most competency tests are racists.
You can attract seduce or pay 100 smart women they will say you have to marry one. According to the norms rich men shouldn’t just pay women and beautiful young women shouldn’t just have rich smart children with rich men.
If the men and women make business deals that make both of them happy, society will say it’s exploitation and so on and make the deals far more complex than what it should be.
Doing so leads to inequality of results that piss of many voters.
But if a woman choose some poor guy and end up becoming single mothers, not only it’s legal it’s subsidized by welfare.
If you are rich, you can earn more money only to pay more taxes child support or alimony to children that’s not even yours if you are not careful.
A woman you never meet can claim you rape her and juries will reward her hundreds of millions of dollars if you are too successful. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump_sexual_misconduct_allegations#:~:text=Since%20the%201970s%2C%20at%20least,denied%20all%20of%20the%20allegations.
Those norms serves nothing more but to prevent inequality. If you are able to be unequal you got to watch out Some can’t be avoided. You can’t completely avoid taxes. The one you can’t avoid are usually mild.
Exception is Holocaust but that is why it’s very politically incorrect. Palestinians also get sympathy because many of them that are indeed innocents can’t do anything. I frankly don’t care about the rest.
Those you can avoid but don’t are harsh. Many guys lost lots of money and commit suicides because of alimony and marriage. So watch out. Learn. Don’t get married. Anything that give government more power over you will usually hurt the rich.
Avoid game balancing norms. And be a hypocrite unlike me.
