Ethics in BricksThere's no such thing as a 'self-made' millionaire.
The Bear (Stephen Rodda)@ethicsinbricks you don't know any forgers, then?
Phil from Wolvo@kernowbear @ethicsinbricks "The best advice my father ever gave me was 'Son, here's a million dollars. Don't lose it'"
Phil Groom@ethicsinbricks quite so. Millionaires and billionaires are made on the backs of the rest of us: overpriced products + underpaid people
(as for those who won their fortunes on a lottery, no better: every million won = a million losers).

“When we say privileged, we’re not talking about those people who were born into royalty or those with millionaire parents in a simple black and white Poor Vs. Rich comparison. We merely mean those folks who have perhaps had a helping hand or two in life while others weren’t given such assistance.”
This Simple Comic Perfectly Explains Privilege, And Everyone Must Read It
Auckland-based illustrator Toby Morris perfectly summarizes what it means to be privileged with this thought-provoking comic strip. When we say privileged, we're not talking about those people who were born into royalty, or those with millionaire parents. We simply mean those folks who have perhaps had a helping hand or two in life while others weren't afforded such assistance.
James Glueck@ethicsinbricks and most certainly the odious ‘self made’ billionaire
AtheistIntelligence@ethicsinbricks nonsense. With a small business loan of $2,000,000 with a fixed 0.97% interest rate, I was able to pull myself up by the bootstraps and leave my Beverly Hills mansion! Anyone can become a millionaire*
*not everyone
Theodora LauCan't agree more. And so glad you're here!!!
Cifer@ethicsinbricks Disagree about millionaire, but definitely agree regarding anything above that.
Spring Forward@ethicsinbricks I agree and glad I found you. #TwitterMigration
