Not working with enough money. Endeavors with copious resources are more likely to succeed, thus multiplying the money. Also, it means you have more attempts/time to get it right.

If I want to close my office door and pee in a bottle so I don't have to walk past a half dozen people on the way to the bathroom that I don't want to interact with, mist mode would be much stealthier than steam mode

Money most definitely does not guarantee success

If there is nothing, if our computer just switches off, then it can't be found out because our ability to perceive is stopped too.

Money guarantees success, but skill does not. I think that was the point here.

Greed isn’t going anywhere. You can put that on a billboard in Times Square.

Wait until you hit 60. Mist mode all the way if you're lucky enough to go at all.

Not sure that’s true.

Shhh....maybe they were reassuring themselves they have really have massive talent and it is random chance that they have not achieved what they define success as...nevermind, this was silly take on how success is achieved and you gave multiple examples. Well done.

No. They both started their businesses without any real qualifications in college, and then grew that business without finishing their qualification. I think op is wrong, qualifications and the skills you learn gaining them is valuable. For every Elon musk or prince Harry, there are 10,000 Susan from accountings who, because of their degree, have a much better life than then would have otherwise.

I sometimes do the math, but I mainly just see it as a donation that happens to result in a few cookies.

Not necessarily. Just sufficient force to accelerate the blade. Gravity is just the easiest to harness in a typical guillotine.

No, I am pretty sure a guillotine needs gravity to work...
