Can't same be said for other industries as well? "Get into oil business, you'll make millions!" "Get an MBA, start your own business and make millions!" "Become a real estate investor and make millions!"

Coding is just one of many things that has potential to make millions. But it's not something that will be done overnight. All these make millions statements forget to point out how the folks in these industries got to those millions.
