Once upon a time, there was this thing called the real world.
In the real world, some people were born among ass holes, and other people were not.
The ass holes had bad habits, and they pushed those habits onto other people's lives such that other people were left dreaming. When other people tried to do something, the ass holes kept pushing because they knew they could get the dreamers into trouble if they pushed back.
Therefore, the dreamers never did anything because the mere act of doing would get them in trouble.
Then, Warren Buffett said this.
He didn't realize how sometimes in life, it's not your own bad habits which ruin you, but the bad habits of others. Warren Buffett said that you have to associate with better people in life, but he didn't realize that relocation and discovery is a real cost that gets sabotaged by what people earlier in life do to you.
He didn't realize how people learn from experience about the achievement you already achieved, and cynically assume the worst about a lack thereof. They label you as lacking work ethic because it's possible you lacked work ethic. They don't account for those who have work ethic, but get ruined by ass holes.
Warren Buffett also didn't distinguish between people who have too much free time from being ass holes who ruin others versus the ruined who don't have the free time they deserve...
...and of course, Warren Buffett didn't account for how the real world had these problems before modern information technology and mass media were around, but how that time period setup dysfunctional households and dilapidated neighborhoods across generations. He had no idea how aristocracy disables meritocracy.
The end.
There is no happy ending.
Warren Buffett is just an idiot.
