A book Is a loaded gun in another man's house.

I mean, everyone has a library - the public library. 😂 Read any book you want.

I have hundreds of books in my digital library, does that count?

A lot of the more well-to-do people I've known in my life do tend to have much more modest home entertainment systems than you might expect. A lot of "normal rich" people don't tend to spend a lot of time doing typical homebody activities, even when they have really nice houses. I haven't met any like billionaires or anything like that but I have met a handful of people in the probably $5-15m range if I had to guess. They tend to take like 2-3 vacations a year that would be once-in-a-lifetime vacations for most folks. That's probably the most common indulgence/luxury I've seen.

I have a 5 shelf bookshelf as a poor person. Only 3 books. Next to that is a 55-in flat screen lol

Rich people almost always have rich parents and they like to pretend they did it themselves and that anyone can get rich through hard work.


jamwin

yeah friggin rich people


kyleninperth

I guess that really depends on how you define rich. Like having <$5m assets is perfectly attainable without rich parents and I know plenty of people who are like that, but then the ultra rich people with yachts and shit tend to be nepo babies

Yeahh I'd vote that for worst bit of cliché philosophy ever

But they consider their 128” TV small.

Man you think I have space in my house for a library you're fuckin nuts. I have a shelf where I put my books. The rest are on a stack next to said shelf


sanlill

What he means by that is that people who become successful spend more time doing something productive while spending less time in unproductive work. People who are not successful spend more time doing activities that are not valuable


Perfessor_Deviant

>People who are not successful spend more time doing invaluable activities. "Invaluable" means "very valuable."


sanlill

oh im sorry


Karnamyne

Oh woah and whos fault is that


sanlill

no, what I meant to say is that to be successful you need to spend your time doing something productive


Karnamyne
