Hmm. The first statement either tautologous or ignores the importance of inheritance and marriage; the second one ignores the importance of property.

In addition to fairly standard retail I can see: gambling, property, inheritance, diamonds, inheritance (Earl Cadogan, Duke of Westminster, Heineken), property, actual inventions (Dyson, Rausing), corruption/oil oligarchy (Abramovich, Usmanov, Blavatnik), and war profiteering (Fredriksen).

Thank you for posting an argument against a point I've never made. Hmmm, it's almost as if I didn't state that selling things was the only way to make money.

You said "you won't get rich unless you sell something" upthread?
