I think it's the most common road to be a millionaire.
Microsoft - Bill Gates Amazon - Jeff Bezos Berkshire Hathaway - Warren Buffet CDProjekt - Adam Kiciński, Marcin Iwiński (They started from absolute nothing, bazar stand with bootleg software) TOYOTA - Akio Toyoda, branched out from family buisness in textile industry
Literally every single successful business made it's founder a fortune
- Microsoft: monopolist founded with a "small loan"
- Amazon: monopolist founded with a "small loan"
- Berkshire Hathaway - founded by a congressman's son with access to wealth and education
- CDProjekt, wow an outlier!
- TOYOTA - generational wealth
Literally every single successful business made it's founder a fortune
LMFAO "the winners won". Any other tautologies you want to spout? "The losers lost" maybe?
Even if you had access to the capital, you'd most likely fail - because running a business is hard
For every Bill Gates or Bezos there are dozens if not hundreds who sunk the entire initial investment.
You hate survivors for some reason.
Invests money they don't own at no risk
Allowed to do so as many times as necessary until success
Has access to advisors, education, can hire entire teams out of the gate
"I am just like you"
"valuable goods ... benefiting everyone" not on the cost of others is what's lacking here
valuable goods ... benefiting everyone
If other people are buying what you produce, in almost every case you produce something valuable, and a person who buys from you benefits.
There are exceptions - drugs, weapons, slot machines ect.
But basically everything you see around yourself that was made by man, was produced by a successful business, and bought by somone who needed it.
you missed something when citing me
not on the cost of others
not on the cost of others
It's not on the cost of others, its a fair exchange. Both sides benefit
And the people in the middle? Sure, the people exploited for the production of those goods benefited a lot. The child forced to harvest coffee and chocolate really enjoyed the transaction.
The child forced to harvest coffee
It's fault of their governments
Really? The western companies exploiting them aren't to blame? The western companies that pay off people to look the other way? The western companies that organise military coups? The western companies that murder opposition? The western companies that send their trash to the country to destroy the market there?
You need to stop feeding the trolls.
