depends on the environment and need tbh

he made it rich with paypal and used that money to pursue crazy dreams

How many Bill Gates has africa produced?

it wasn't about skill, he got lucky

IDK about that

its true

"he just got lucky"

why didnt other people get lucky?

okay sure, it wasn't all luck

`You are not beaten until you admit it.`
Defeatism is the death of our struggle and means that you are willing to accept all of the horrible fates outlined numerous times.

I agree he had a simple concept but most things are simple, like a rocket

Ensure your criticism does not give way to defeatism.

A rocket is a very simple concept

just randomness though, not everyone who has the capacity of elon musk gets the oppurtunity he did

No its not lol

it's not about the rocket, its about the resources to put into it

at this point

Seriously I hate being forced to study something I don't care about.

Jews in america are 3% of the population and half of the billionaires and millionaires, being economically succesfull isn't random

And outside of the jewish demographic its also highly correlated to iq

This place is awful. It's making me dumber because I have to put my sleep at risk to get here every morning

not random, in that case

but elon got jumped in high school in africa

moved to the states

got into IT

made money

and did cool stuff with it

im not saying he's a moron

I should move to Africa

but there are tons of other people in the world with his tallent that just aren't being tapped into

Its almost unconceivable that someone would admit that its genetic for a horse to be good at racing, or a cow to produce large amounts of milk, or a chicken to become big, or a tomato to be a good producer, or for a human to be tall, or to have certain phenotypic expressions, or for IQ to be genetic, but then to say, well temperment and predisposition, and all the traits and characheristics that predispose someone to be economically succesfull, that is not genetic

more so amongst europeans

its genetic

Well that is because we dont live in a meritocracy

Great we can agree

but we are the same race

We can train 100,000 engineers and we dont get more elon musks

The way you get more elon musks is via breeding programmes not education

he's not that unique though

imo
