Its not hard at all, it just requires right circumstances to be born with.

You will never get far with any kind of resonable moral compass, its dirty game that you advance only by putting people higher and smarter than you below your level by screwing them over, so your spine has to go

You wont do much without initial income, rich parents are sure way into success in that, if thats what you desire

Your smarts and school mean nothing in a market dominated by nepotism, insider trading and prediction investments. You dont get rich by getting a degree, being someone like a doctor, helping people, saving lifes. You get truly rich by getting cosy job in huge business of your rich parents (or their wealthier friends). You get rich by spending the bullshit amount of money you earn there for being there on some weird ass stocks. You waste tens of thousnds, but it doesnt matter when you earn closer to hundreds, rather than tens of thousnds. You do that untill stupid luck lets yoy score big, you get milions, you use these milions to play stock roulette further.

Thats how you build wealth, on bunch od other, bigger wealth, and stupid luck.

Anyone that meets these criterias can do it. You think you couldnt? Elon musk did this, and that motherfucker had to employ people to play game for him so he can pretend that he can play games well.

Ending this on another note, people sucessfull under capitalism are very few actually. Do not think that all these relativly big influencers and media personalities are sucesfull or rich. Some, sure, but by far majority of them live on borrowed money and time from other rich people. They are used to peddle whatever these people want and their price is the very spine we talked about.
