#27: Another Hot Take
Ah, the inheritance myth. This is one of the most commonly repeated things that you’re going to hear when people start talking about money, and it’s absolutely, 100% wrong. Multiple studies of multiple populations at multiple times in history undertaken by multiple organizations have all come to the conclusion that the majority of wealthy people inherited either no money or only a small amount of money.
Personally, I find that a very encouraging statistic! Not inheriting a fortune doesn’t mean that I never have a chance to become rich. Other people have started from nothing and become wealthy, and that means that so can I, and so can you.
