You could be one day this billionaire in America ;)

[cosmic_cheese]

Could, but almost certainly won’t, and I say this as someone who is unabashedly actively working to take advantage of the wealth building opportunities available in the US. Most people would be extremely lucky if they manage to break $1m by retirement (if they even get to retire).

Not me, I wasn't born into wealth.

I almost hate to be "that guy", but for most Americans, the sarcastic phrase could just as well be:

"You could be one day the hypothetical person mentioned in the article with USD100000 net worth".

But statistically, it's overwhelmingly likely you won't. The proportion of billionaires in the population is too small.
