Have you considered being born with a trust fund?

It's really shocking that the poors are too stupid to try this. Clearly the rich are smarter and deserve their riches.

The money doom loop:

The rich are that rich because they are competent. Because they are so competent we better listen to them and give them what they want. They want money, and so we make them richer.

Or just stop being poor. Or win the lottery. Or marry rich. Or just be successful.

Clearly OP hasn't worked hard enough.

I'm very proud of you, for that simply means that you don't want to become a modern slave, and therefore, that your brain still works.

Even selling feet pics isn't easy

[–] TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

You gotta market yourself like 4 hours a day at least.

It's hard being in the feet finder trenches

I could make a living just buying and reselling junk, plus picking stuff off the road. Just don't have the discipline to hit it like a real job.

Pick an idea and roll with it, most of them won't work, but the only way to find out what will is experience since nobody is going to tell you the truth about money making methods.
