Bruh they know! They just don't want to think about it so they lie to theirselves.
I once had some really awful landlords who were so stupid that they thought everyone else was as stupid as they were. As a result, whenever there was a problem a new sign would appear. For example, if they received a complaint that the dryer in the laundry room took too long to dry, they put up a sign limiting the number of clothes you could put into the dryer, rather than checking to see if the exhaust to the outdoors was just chockfull of lint - problem solved.
I wonder how many millionaires consistently did the wrong stupid thing, but through sheer dumb luck, made money anyway - like, enough money to make them immune from their own fuckups. I bet you there's a lot, given how little control we all of us actually have over our lives.
Well I'll be a ....! I can't even say that! Nor do I want to! :p
@ FreeMan - And buy luxury items to make themselves feel better while making their problems even worse.
@ JK - I think it's different for many rich people who suffer from this. Those doing poorly suffer more immediate consequences and should learn sooner.
@ Df - Nah... YOU look for answers...
This is true.
