    Basically: got to buy a house early as opposed to most of us ( probably with parents’ help), got lucky on the stock market (because he wasn’t spending everything on rent), and works as a CFO somewhere.

    Definitely not in everyone’s reach here.

      But maybe that could happen to YOU, so don’t pay too much attention to how much you’re getting screwed, because you’ll totally be a CFO in just a few more years of work!

        Hell, I might be a CFO now and I’ve failed to notice! Hold on, let me check… No… No, I’ve just managed to burn a microwave dinner again.

        Yup we just need to travel back in time, attend a select private university, have parents who can give us a living space until we save up for a house, and get a job directly into the C-Suite off the networking from that private university. It could totally happen! We don’t need any workers, everyone can be in the boardroom!
