Ya know, after reading all of your posts I can't help but say...you're sure the arrogant and callous one.
You seem to show disrespect and disregard towards those who punch a clock for a living just to make ends meet and try to advance in a world that is increasingly taking more and more of their income through taxation.
...I am so sick of ever 9 to 5 clock puncher who thinks I must have just gotten it for nothing, because they are too damned lazy to take their own destiny into their own hands.
You admit they punch a clock 9 to 5, thus admitting that they are gainfully employed, yet you call them lazy! You can't seem to grasp the simple reality that they aren't mad about you gaining wealth, only that they can't gain wealth by working diligently.
...Yes, folks got to work, and you get paid to produce, and if Real Estate isn't your think, it doesn't matter... do it with something else! You go start your own business selling widgets for all it matters!
And just what do you start a business with? Isn't capital, often substantial capital, required to start a business? Saving to start a business might be a prudent course of action, but how many years must the average Joe clock puncher labor in order to start such a business? They don't start themselves all on their own.
You even game the system...you can literally 1031 exchange your entire life and past your death!...and seem proud of it.
You can comment back, but I won't heed it. Your slip is showing very prominantly.

No, I call them lazy, because they punch the clock 9 to 5 and then whine that they don't get what they want out of life. I have nothing against 9 to 5ers, I have a lot against 9 to 5 ers who think that their BOSS owes them wealth... Guess what, it doesn't work that way! You will NEVER, EVER, EVER get paid what you are worth if you are working for someone else.... that's reality! If your working didn't create more for the company than what you cost them.. you'd be gone.

Capital is not needed to start a business. I've started 3 of them now and did so with no money of my own or others.... There are hundreds of thousands of people today running businesses both large and small and didn't spend fortunes getting them off the ground! You are showing exactly WHY most people stay broke! They just don't have the initiative or are too damned fearful to try, to do anything... they are always handy with an excuse.

Game the system? Understanding the system and operating within the rules is not GAMING the system... I didn't write the 1031 exchange law... Congress did.. I am not the only person allowed to do it.. just because you again are too negative and unwilling to put forth effort and pick up a book and learn some knowlege that will help you create wealth as opposed to sit on the sidelines and whine about those that do, don't try to project your failings on others.

Life is there for the taking, you can grab it by the horns or sit on the curb and watch it go by. There's nothing wrong with folks who settle for watching it go by, but if that's the route you decide to take, don't try projecting your class envy on those who refuse to settle for that.
