For someone to earn high value numbers someone else has to be doing the grunt work, the work that allows that value to be unlocked.

These people are desperate and have no capital. Money is a time machine and if you have none of it you are forced into grunt labour.

You don't get 100 million working as a pizza delivery driver or delivering parcels but the owner sure does.

The answer is usually luck
