"So is the burger flippin Billy in 33rd Street. :) " The cab-driving Ramesh fresh out of India probably has a Master's degree from some Indian university. College education does not guarantee $$$, trust me on that. People who can think out of the box are in a much better position. Think innovation. Me, I'm interested in starting my own business. Been saving every cent so one day a million bucks would just be pocket change for me. Will happen some day. The process is slow, but I'm already starting. While some people waste 4 straight years going to college, I have been busy planning my future. In the grand scheme of things, just remember, the hare always wins over the turtle. What probability is there that a turtle beats a hare in a race? Almost zero probability. Now in fairy tales the reverse is true. And a fairy tale is but an old wives' tale that's supposed to make us feel good. I hardly know any fairy tales that are depressing. There are, but they all got so-called "morals". Ehh, who needs morals.
