When people say "easily", they don't mean "everybody gets to it". They mean "The chances are better than elsewhere". Which is true. And also fyi if you actually enjoy learning and growing you wouldn't sound so bitter about not making stupid amounts of money

Are the chances better than elsewhere? It seems sales, real estate, etc would be the "easier" place to make money as there's even less involved in barriers to entry.

"And also fyi if you actually enjoy learning and growing you wouldn't sound so bitter about not making stupid amounts of money"

FYI these aren't mutually exclusive. You can enjoy learning and growing while being bitter about getting screwed over. And it's not bitter to point out to other people that initial comment about just learning and growing being enough to easily reach top 5% income is a lie.
