You never see billionaires work because they are so productive it looks the same as doing nothing, like the flash of productivity.

They can do the work of a thousand men in seconds, justifying the hundreds of millions in annual compensation.

It really makes you wonder why we have any work remaining for the rest of us.

Because they are also magnanimous and leave sone of the easy work, that they could of course easily do, for the less gifted to earn their fair share.

Don't forget the guilt they dish out when the "easy work" isn't easy.

Maybe we should stop using Seinfeld for memes. He's a trash person that supports and defends the Palestinian genocide.

His wife donated $5,000 to counter protesters at UCLA. He also labels those disagreeing with his stance guilty of "jew hate".

In short, Seinfeld is racist and a shitbag.

While I would normally agree loudly with you because he is human trash and the show sucked, it's kinda the perfect level of trash and suck for this meme.

"but they take all the risk, they deserve the reward"

what risk? the only thing they risk is becoming one of us if they fail hard enough and have to go get a regular job

Trying to remember which scene this is (the original lines). Anyone got a hint?

I think it's from "Seinfeld"
