For a while, I kept seeing memes like these and thinking, "Who actually says/believes these things about [m/b]illionaires?"
Then it unlocked an old memory from grade school where we were given a list of, like, ten things millionaires do with dumb shit like, "Get up early in the morning," "Have a daily schedule," and, "Keep a journal."
Yeah seems like every month there is some random trash article along the lines of “Warren Buffet’s tips to frugal living” with shit like don’t eat out listed….. no it’s because he was the son of a congressman, he won the birth lottery, go fuck yourself for trying to push that bullshit narrative lol
Buffett is like the worst person you could use as an example. He routinely says he was set up for success by luck.

protestant work ethic horseshit. especially in the US we love doing things in the most miserable ways because that inherently makes them better for you, apparently
like tim cook wakes up at 3AM every day. he doesn't need to. he just does it because his material condition is so incredibly incomprehensible to the human brain, he has to pick the most miserable thing he can think of to make it seem justified
