be bankrupted by a chronic medical diagnosis

That’s where my mind went too

What’s your excuse

Oh shit, obligatory chat GPT ass-text

You have a point that there’s a huge difference in the life of a minimum wage family and a family able to invest 6 figures. Context matters though and I think the point was that they didn’t have an overwhelming amount that can force success; we’re talking about a financial-secure and supported start that enables pursuit of things that are unlikely to pan out. Still no small luxury, by any means.

even if mathematically their finances are closer to minimum wage earners than to the 0.0000001% of ultra wealthy.

FWIW 0.1% is already 38 million dollars (net worth, US, 2012 data).

E: Speaking of context, you were specifically talking about commonality between the, idk, bottom 1-10%, top 1-10%, and (whatever is ultra-wealthy). So my point may be the one made out-of-context.

Why the torture?

I wonder how light-handed you’ll have to be to keep that market, election, and war info accurate.
