Job should be there too. When they get bored, they start doing someone else's job until they get bored. Like trump pretending to be a Mcdonald employee, or Elon pretending to be a CEO.
Mentors can be a legitimately good way to progress your career; but 100% of the online mentoring services are bullshit.
Like, for anyone salaried in a corporate environment; pick someone ~3 rings higher than you on the ladder in a seperate department (e.g. Team Lead, Department Head, VP, GM etc.).
They will be familiar enough with the business to provide useful guidance, helping you build up not only your skillset but your professional network. Because, the dirty secret is - after a certain point, it’s not necessarily what you know - it who you know.
It's hilarious to me that, while the author is trying to own working-class people's poor choice of hobbies, what it actually does is show the immense privilege of people whose only hobbies are various forms of "self improvement".
Isn't musk posting on Twitter all day everyday that he is playing Diablo?
(Sidenote: did you know musk is one of the top players in the leaderboard in Diablo iv? Totally unrelated; Did you know you can buy yourself, through gambling mechanics, quite an advantage with real money?)
The Owners class, which is people who live off the money that's made by the assets they own.
The Worker class, which is people who live off the money they get from selling their work.
What was called "Middle Class" generally are just workers who earn a bit more, though the older Middle Class did at times manage to save enough to buy enough assets that they could start living of the income from those assets and not have to work anymore. That's not the case for young people nowadays who would qualify as Middle Class due to their level of formal education and the kind of work they do because it's way harder for them to save and asset prices are through the roof.
Rich people having movie theatres, expensive gaming rigs at home whitelist surrounded by PAs & maids sounds like the first category.
Only the buying/renting/paying people with actual knowledge is kinda from the second.
But it's options.
Rich people have options, the luxury to choose whatever - they have the time (no job or financial-survivor stress) to choose said options, and if they fail also the financial safety net with catch them comfortably/without years of additional debt.
The 24h of a rich person are not the same as 24h of an average person.
In all fairness, this seems like one of those motivational posters where English isn't the native language. I suspect that what the person is trying to say: "if you want to stay poor, keep these habits. If you want to become rich, learn these habits." It utterly discounts the fact that, in the US, upward mobility has stagnated; the secret to becoming rich in the US is to be born rich. It's not impossible to improve your economic status, but it's hard. In some countries, it's still possible to move up a tax bracket within a decade.
I think American eyes read this differently than how the author intended.
I will call out that putting "work" in the poor row is BS, no matter what your philosophy. The only person I personally know who went from middle-middle class to lower upper has no personal life. He is his work. He's family and we often vacation together, and I've never been on a vacation with him when he didn't spend multiple hours on each of the days in meetings or on his computer. He's nearing 60 and is home about 50% of the year, and the rest of it he's traveling. We have a pool going for how long he'll stay retired before he commits himself to some board or something that demands half his time.
There's are three ways to get rich: inheritance, crime, and becoming your job.
I made the comment that rent should be tax deductible, just like a mortgage, and some rise and grind boot licking doofus said "you can if you run a home business."
First of all, do you need to run a home business in a home you own to write off your mortgage? No
Secondly, not everyone in the country can run a home business. Imagine the chaos.
I love how the education system in several countries can be summed as "the people and govts paying to train up kids so they can work, because the companies sure as hell don't want to spend a dime training and preparing people to work for them"
Job is not my hobby, job is how I pay for my hobbies.
Also I wish learning got me rich. Unfortunately I don’t bother learning stuff that makes money. I am however shockingly educated on certain subcultural histories.
Average rich people hobbies: Cocaine, tax fraud, genocide
Burning fossil fuels, underage sex parties, over throwing democratically elected 3rd world governments.
Overthrowing 1st world countries as well
Now trending 📈
Just replaying a classic
Makes me wonder if that fascist regime would've fallen by the end of the 20^th^ century like the other fascist regimes in Europe
Human trafficking, business fraud, stock fraud, having union organizers threatened/killed...
Born wealthy
Hanging out with Epstein
You forgot paedophilia, human trafficking and climate destruction.
Job should be there too. When they get bored, they start doing someone else's job until they get bored. Like trump pretending to be a Mcdonald employee, or Elon pretending to be a CEO.
"Invest in Mentors"
Fucking clown always trying to sell his stupid shit
Wasn't at all surprised to scroll up and see "mentor" in their byline
clownclownsTake me to lunch pleeeeeease

Any rich person born after 1993 can't party. All they know is gym, invest in they mentors, not work, be knowledgeable, do business, and lie.
No eat hot chip?
Only female rich people.
Don't blame me, I only know hot chip
Now playing - Down by Hot Chip
Some of the most knowledgeable people I’ve meet were dirt-poor.
most academics/research roles. Huge competition, your life depends on winning grants, requires PhD and years of training, poverty-level salaries.
They must love their Job hobby
I don't think this individual understands what a hobby is. Your job by definition is not a hobby.
IF YOU LOVE YOUR JOB YOU'LL NEVER WORK A SINGLE DAY BROTHER AWOOOGA
Man, I knowledged so hard today.
It's hilarious to me that, while the author is trying to own working-class people's poor choice of hobbies, what it actually does is show the immense privilege of people whose only hobbies are various forms of "self improvement".
TIL, that Donald and Mush partying at Epstein Island is considered a hobby for the poor.
Isn't musk posting on Twitter all day everyday that he is playing Diablo?
(Sidenote: did you know musk is one of the top players in the leaderboard in Diablo iv? Totally unrelated; Did you know you can buy yourself, through gambling mechanics, quite an advantage with real money?)
It wasn't a party, it was a business meeting, involving business partners wink wink nudge nudge
Alternately, rich kids just pay off the carnival workers for the big prize without playing the game at all
Or mass deport them after living off their labor for decades
So I am middle class then. Man why does it still feel poor?
you are working class. We all are.
Nowadays, there are really only two classes:
What was called "Middle Class" generally are just workers who earn a bit more, though the older Middle Class did at times manage to save enough to buy enough assets that they could start living of the income from those assets and not have to work anymore. That's not the case for young people nowadays who would qualify as Middle Class due to their level of formal education and the kind of work they do because it's way harder for them to save and asset prices are through the roof.
Alvin's hobby: ::: spoiler CW: nudity :::
Oh come on, I doubt it's that large.
ive done the gym and knowledge thing, why am i not rich?
One must delete facebook and lawyer up before one can ascend to the realm of #4. Profit.
facebork was gone 5 minutes after starting up this phone on day one. lawyers are only as good as the money you give them.
It's a reference to two older memes.

Did you do a business?
not so's you know it
Business of giving the business... and Business is Booming!
They forgot that the main criteria for ending up in the "rich" group is "be born rich".
How invest in either mentors or dementors.
i can only afford mentos
I must be middle class because I skip the gym to do my cardio outside
A job is not a hobby. I feel that that shouldn't require explanation.
Sometimes, hobby becomes job and stops being hobby :c
"So, do you have any hobbies?"
"Yep! I like job, invest in mentors, knowledge..."
It’s amazing how hourly workers brainwashed themselves into believing that they’re entrepreneurs.
They really believe the nonsense that bro podcasters sell them.
They’ll be 40 in an hourly retail position wondering where everything went wrong.
Entire bottom box should be “wait for trust fund”.
making enough money to be able to pay rent and eat something is my new hobby!
I swear rich people have no actual interests
The ones that do are not spending their time posting sociopath bullshit on LinkedIn.
Ask yeah - Elon "I'm in the global top 10 in Diablo" Musk sure doesn't have gaming as a hobby...
He left off being a demerit to any society they touch.
Poor people hobby > Job
Rich people hobby > Business

The 24h of a rich person are not the same as 24h of an average person.
The actual bullshit message behind this:
A rich person is a good person and a smart person.
In posted this, so I am signaling to you that I am a good and smart person that will be rich if I’m not already.
Obviously the #1 life goal of all people is to be rich, so you should all be like me, and you should be ashamed when you take time to enjoy existence.
(Disclaimer: I’m not shitting on people who enjoy or find fulfillment in their job or their business)
You don't need to be rich to go to a gym or increase your knowledge.
A job is not a hobby.
What is this? Some pseudo-wisdom from a “life coach” or something?
Grindset life bs. It's extremely stupid, they all brag about not enjoying life like it's a terrible insult to everyone else.

Become my job...? I once tried to fix myself, but then my therapist got overwhelmed and quit. 🤷♂️
Serious question. What is "invest in mentors"? I can't figure this one out. Like you pay people to mentor you?
Yep, personal tutors etc
Look at the bio of the person who posted it.
Wow, this is such bullshit.
Also having been born into generational wealth and exploiting the finance system - that's the most famous rich-people-hobby.
I made the comment that rent should be tax deductible, just like a mortgage, and some rise and grind boot licking doofus said "you can if you run a home business." First of all, do you need to run a home business in a home you own to write off your mortgage? No Secondly, not everyone in the country can run a home business. Imagine the chaos.
Was this written by a prev-gen LLM?
Looks like an Amway ad.
A banker, he spares a quarter for my cup, his troubles deeper than mine
That way of life, boys, there ain't gold enough, I'll trade you money for wine
Invest in mentors, huh.
Definitely doesn't have a relevant detail in his bio.
No. Since schools started becoming exclusively for training the next generation of laborers, arts is no longer funded.
Now, shut up and learn to pull that lever.
I love how the education system in several countries can be summed as "the people and govts paying to train up kids so they can work, because the companies sure as hell don't want to spend a dime training and preparing people to work for them"
Job is not my hobby, job is how I pay for my hobbies.

I'm a average people who became rich people with Bitcoin. So now I'm just the top panel without the work.
I dont say this to brag, but to encourage other average peoples to become rich people too.
