The way they don't process how the immediate influx of cash can, if used right, lead to getting the book, or having the credit score, or even having an actual meeting with a celebrity (since he's also a businessman) is always gonna stab my brain the wrong way

Capitalism is a hell of a drug.

You're not "built different" because you think "hustling" for every measley little dollar is better than having a life where you can actually do what you want without fear of starvation, you've been brainwashed.

The thing is? This isn't even savvy Capitalism.

You put two options between a capitalist, they choose the one with the greater value. Period. "Earning" something is irrelevant to capitalism. It doesn't care, at all, about earning things; it cares about who owns them and it doesn't care how they got them.

This isn't being built different; you are an idiot who eats up propaganda about the nobility of hard work while assholes who never worked a day in their life and consider themselves better then you specifically because you have to work and they don't laugh at you.
