    i can’t speak from experience but i’m pretty sure that:

    • taking up tens of thousands of dollars of student debt makes you more appealing (less likely to expect fair conditions and pay) to employers
    • from there it’s 95% networking with people richer than you and pretending that they are cool / funny etc until you retire or kill yourself

    *edit I forgot the most important step! you have to pretend (and act out in the workplace) that rich people are also very smart. Otherwise they can’t pretend they are rich because of merit.

    LARPing seems like a pretty important part of all of it now that i consider it
