Why haven't you spent $500 to build a multi trillion dollar tech company yet?
>>108026404I have. Ask me where I'm at in 10 years.
>>108026404$2,829.02 today, if you believe the banks inflation figures and their carefully selected basket of goods by which they judge inflation.
>>108026404>be jobs, woz, altair, commodore etc.>1970s>single chip CPUs are invented>see obvious use for such chips>create obvious products - small versions of expensive mini computers>Why haven't you spent $500 to build a multi trillion dollar tech company yet?because it's no longer the 1970s.>computer company>applemaybe in the 80s and 90s. today computers make up less than 30% of apple's yearly profits. they could stop making computers tomorrow and nobody would notice the loss of their <8% market share.
>>108026404Wasn't able to steal anyone else's ideas and wasn't born into a mega rich diamond mining family like the rest of them.
>>108026701Steve Jobs grew up in a working class family.
>>108026404Im brown
>>108026732It wasn't even his real family either
>>108026692Nearly everything they make is a computer
> Lieutenant Dan got me invested in some kind of fruit company. So then I got a call from him, saying we don't have to worry about money no more. And I said, that's good! One less thing
I live in a third world country where the average wage is $60 per month and cant invest
>>108026768but what is family? what is real?
my bank said they'd give me a $15,000 business loan should I take it? I don't have a business. Is that enough to start a business? every time i log into the app they say this.
>>108026800You can move from California to another state, you know?
>>108026839Your real family are your egg and sperm donors. His dad was a Syrian that split and his mom gave him away. Ended up working out for him though, he wouldn't have been raised in California if they kept him.
>>108026846>$15,000>the current price of equipment thanks to tariffs>paying to ensure compliance with EPA, IRS, OSHA, Wage and Hour, Local and City Codes>the current cost of advertising.yeah sure, $15G is MORE than enough.... go for it!
>>108026796>1975How did he invest in Apple a year before it even existed?
>>108026800You live in Somalia?
>>108026739And so was Steve Jobs.
Jobs didn't invent shit. The PDA and mobile phones already existed. He just took existing ideas and put them together.>hmmmm i like this idea of donuts, what if someone make a really big one and called it a cake?>omg he's a genius! try again iSheep
>>108026404>$500Do I look like I have $500 to gamble on a startup?
>>108026858Because Forest Gump is a magical retard. In the book he went into space.They should’ve left it in the movie since Tom Hanks was in Apollo 13 the next year.
>>108026871But I’m a different kind of brown
>>108026902Like what, a Filipino?You guys are the most powerful race on the planet
>>108026692To be fair the music and illustration / design sectors would notice since they basically all use Macs.
>>108026692Apple didn't invent shit. They stole pretty much everything they are credited for.
>>108026910Mexican
>>108027030pretty much. the original apple 1 was inspired by/stolen from don lancaster's tv teletype that was in an electronics magazine. i think don also helped out on the apple 1 at some stage too.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TV_Typewriter>>108026953>apple stop making slop machines>they buy PCs>download same software from same developersreally is that easy.
you could have spent $500 on buttcoin back in 2008 and be a trillionaire right now but you didn't, because you were stupid.You could have invested in nvidia back when AI started taking off but you didn't.You can't even see the next huge thing about to take off to invest in now.
>>108027054Apple is a cult - the followers are generally morons. You're talking about people who live and breath reality TV and facebook, who couldn't operate a piece of real tech if held a gun to their heads.You think the fact Apple is actually fraudulent matters to them>
>>108027033Yikes nigga Imagine being ruled by a puta judia I mean I know don is a like at heart but you people actually elected a Jewess as your president.
>>108026404I spent €1000 on anime and gundam stuff last month instead.
>>108026404>$500 in the 80s ie 23 trillions in today's dollarmy daddy is not that rich, pal
>>108027115I didn’t vote for her but things work like that over here
>>108027063To be fair to people, the AI scam has been done twice before already. I'm surprised it worked for a third time.
>>108026796>faggot flag in 1975poetic.
>>108027063Me and most normies werent fully aware we lived on a casino economy. I may be older but ive learned things since then.
>>108027063no, I couldn't have, because I was graduating high school and did not have disposable income.no, I couldn't have, because nvidia shares were ~$20 per and I didn't have enough disposable income to buy a meaningful amount that would retire me even after AI rises.no, I can't because I exist in the present because I don't enjoy the power of retrospect until things have already happened nor would I have the purchasing power to take risks even if I did.no, you being a smarmy fuck doesn't make me feel bad about any of that.
