Billionaires are simply very proficient in gaining and aquiring mass amounts of money. Its a skill (or set of skills) in of itself. Scientists do not have these skills.

The question is why we don't teach skills of business and finance in the school curriculum. How to obtain and more importantly maintain financial freedom and independence.

Thats loser talk. Everyone knows that scientists are losers who can't make it in the real world.

With the glaring income inequality that continues to grow, who really Can? A lot more people in this world could make it if they knew how.

100K is a nice wage which lets me live comfortably.

Because they're not businessmen?

Scientists are used by billionaires to become billionaires.

Trump is more or less an exception

Because you can't really sell science. How do you make money out of the theory of relativity? You have to apply it, and scientists don't do that. That's what engineers are for, and there are plenty of billionaire engineers. In fact, most of the richest people are engineers, programmers, or something similar, not pure businessmen (Slim Helu, Bill Gates, Zuckerberg, Bezos, etc.).

>scientists are only theorists
when the anti engineer meme is taken too far
