The football analogy is interesting to extend: the NFL roster spots open up every year, such that the roster turns over, keeping churn happening and keeping opportunity open. The deca-millionaire spots don't/won't work that way. These are mostly 62-year-old men sitting on closely held businesses, and the tax code is built to move those businesses down the family line rather than back into open competition. So the the odds aren't just long. Most of the soprts are already spoken for and are being passed down. 🤷🏻♀️
What we all want to see and understand, the matrix is building up a new carrot 🥕 "millionaire" as the status quo. Yes, 💯 40 years ago "middle-class" was (was) the status to have or work to have?
I have been thinking for two weeks about this new push to build up the "millionaire" status as potential (don't like that word, but) the new American Dream.
