Someone give me one good reason why you should be able to become rich, simply because you bought something before other people.

Literally provides 0 value to anyone but yourself.

Everything is information. It can be knowing a skill others don't, having a product others need or holding an asset others want.

Do you think money/payments are fairly distributed between various skills?

Where does gouging end? Look at medication in the U.S., martin shkreli, that's the end result of constantly trying to grow profits.

Because I saw the Value of "The Thing" before others, as the thing is needed there is a price for me to forfeit the thing and that price is more than what i acquired it for + years of stagnant waiting because the guy with $$ didn't understand.

"you are able to become rich because you buy something before other people". that is not how you become rich. more often than not that is how you become poor. however, you can become rich if you sell something that many want but only few have.

I can’t save the rest of the world, people out there need to understand things , and most just don’t. Not saying I’ll be rich, but at least I k ow what I hold has a bigger value than what the current rest of the world can imagine right now. THAT is worth something.

I buy umbrellas during winter for cheap. People want to buy them when it rains

Replying to@16bbte…9vM4

I'd sell people my umbrellas at cost, not try to gouge them because they didn't act "fast enough"

That's how it works though. There is no doubt people that rip others off. That's the beauty of free market. The laws of thermal dynamics apply to everything. Everything is energy.

because you had the ability to see value where others did not and you were willing to risk your own hard earned capital to secure and preserve that value.

Congratulations on your luck of the draw versus the mcdonalds worker who is stuck in a loop they didn't design, which you have never been subject to in your life

Everything in life is trading, some trade their time for money , others risk their capital for a chance at profiting. This is life, it doesn't matter that you don't like the way some people make their money. Treat it like a game, adapt.
