... ish?
Generally speaking, rich people may not be smarter than anyone else but they probably aren't dumber. In other words, they are likely to be making fewer mistakes and taking more favourable risks, even if they aren't particularly any more likely to spot an extraordinary opportunity.

You're kind of proving my point here though by making the argument that rich people probably just make better decisions than the working class. It's not really about making better decisions as it is about having access to better financial opportunities that others don't have. As I stated elsewhere, the real estate firm I described offered massive returns that you could not dream of getting in retail investment situation, but it required a minimum $1M investment, which obviously excludes most people.
I could give you the name of the firm so you too could know how to make that crazy money, but if you don't have the million, you're SOL. It has nothing to do with how smart you are, it has everything to do with how much money you have.
Hi Cyril_HN! Thanks for your question. What you are asking for is sometimes called "part of speech" tagging. We currently don't support that but will add it down the road along with more advanced image outputs like detection.
Same here but it's a 5 year relationship. Similar feelings... With a persistent, almost frustrating sense of hope for the future that seems more deeply rooted inside of me than any actual plan to build from zero again.
You're not alone in that experience. Which isn't information that has helped me at all. Except that I at least believe that others have been here and scrambled blindly and made it somehow too, so why not us?
I won't feel like that. I don't feel like that. I have felt like it licenses lesser moral transgressions though. "They got away with that, so I should be able to get away with [thing that is wrong but also considerably more mild]."
That isn't right, but it is a feeling. It's a feeling I dismiss. But, still, if it's a feeling I feel then I imagine it's a feeling others feel and I imagine that not everybody dismisses it either.
Corruption of that kind happens very, very slowly.
1. Work on your cardio and your strength. If you don't like weightlifting, that's OK, you don't need to do all the fancy accessory movements (curls, leg extensions, side raises, etc.). However, increasing your strength in the big 5 is huge boon to your life and your longevity: Some kind of deadlift, a squat, bench, Pull-ups, and an overhead press. Strong, fit, and flexible/mobile is the key to feeling young as you age.
2. Don't bother about "building a personal brand" because you probably have no idea what you want to be or who you really are yet. Instead, actively avoid building a bad brand. Be honest, don't overcommit, don't speak ill of others, don't be an unwarranted pessimist (without a solution), etc. You can use that clean slate to build on later. Plenty of people don't ever get clean slates because they pollute their "brand" with what were ultimately throw away jokes, bad moments, etc.
3. Earn money, invest it, and reduce your spending on material things. Learn your taste in clothing by doing it inexpensively (though not too cheaply, don't skimp on decent quality) and when it's locked in, then buy the nice versions. Don't rush to houses and cars. They'll come when you know where you want to be and who you want to be with.
4. Do spend money on experiences. Sure, ocassional nights out, but mostly whatever will make formative memories.
5. Spend time with your family. They won't be too old yet for quality time and they still are likely to have their health, and you're free enough to not have to squeeze them in around kids, work, etc. Get to know them as adults now you're one.
6. Continue to educate yourself (even informally).
7. Do not neglect your health.
8. Seriously, don't neglect your health.
9. Consider therapy or coaching. Yes, you do have things you can work on. No, they may not be illnesses or significant, but why not improve what can be improved?
