Unless you start your own business (which you will likely work way more at if you want it to be successful), then you work for someone else. Calling yourself a slave when you have literally he easiest and most prosperous life in all of human history is a bit of s stretch.

Your life is so much easier than literally everyone's lives was 100 years ago.

@MD1 - My partner is a 49 year old Partner at a Big4. She’s retiring next year. That’s decidedly not a wage slave. -- thats an exception. do you think everyone makes a partner. the bottom pyramid in thousands has to slave for the kings (partners) who make the moolah. so its not a stupid post.its reality.

cuck is too good

This kind of mindset is based on the same fantasy that one day, a man can become an island, despite the age old wisdom of “no man is an island.” Open a business, you’ll feel like you’re working for the investors, the banks, or the very least you’ll become a slave to your own expectations and your customers. Unless you’re independently wealthy and don’t have to work, you are going to be dependent on somebody.
