Well if we define win as moving past the entry level positions getting enough income for yourself, you would need to be smart. How many other people are willing to earn that promotion? (Sometimes not many, other times you can have half the crew putting in their dues)
If you define winning as starting a family, then you just need two people working 40 hours, which I'm finally breaking through that threshold. So winning in this case is being smart with dating/finding and keeping a partner
I admit there is some dumb luck involved. I just happened to want to try delivering pizzas, I didn't think I'd end up being a manager within 8 months and starting training to take over a store in four/six months. But I couldn't have gotten that if I wasn't smart
If it were easy, everyone would be rich, but if everyone was rich, theoretically then a hundred dollar bill could be worth 1 dollar in today's economy. The country needs fast food workers, people to fold clothes, someone to mop up puke. Even with government assistance they're not gonna make it so no one still has to be in one of those jobs
Take a look at all the propaganda, all the distractions. They want people to work these jobs and spend any extra money on cell phones, tvs, gaming consoles, computers, treat yourself to a fancy meal, whatever but it keeps you in that pit where you have to continue working to support yourself and you'll never dig yourself out because you're at work all the time; unless you're smart and can find a way to give yourself an edge
And yeah, you'd still need the money to buy the berry bush. My point with the berries is yeah, it's possible to survive without any government or economy, but you still gotta put in work. Especially with how frustrating the system can be, it's still nicer buying what I need at a store over an hour versus hunting and gathering
IIN to respond honestly to the question "What do you do?"
