What is the easiest way to make money?

Generational wealth is the best career option, hands down.

Even just as simple as having parents that would take you in if you couldn’t make rent or send you 50.00 for food is enough to feel comfort. I had to make this point to a friend whose parents would help if she spent too much shopping for the month. “I don’t have the type of parents that can spot me, I’m the one they call to get a spot.”

Good point but why's she wearing a life vest?

Also a lot of money gives great returns on investments and savings accounts. A return on 100,000 investment compared to starting with 1,000 will be a huge gap.

She ain't wrong tho!

The hardest thing to teach your children is your hustle. Your grind. Your work ethic. A kid being born into wealth with no perspective is almost a sure fire way to make sure your legacy is wasted

Not to mention the literal easiest way to make money is by passive returns from existing wealth.

If you have a $2 million dollar chunk of change at a broker, you'll safely withdraw $80k a year and not even touch the principal.

Endless studies back this up. Also the large majority of the ultra wealthy come from already ultra wealthy families

The interviewer is at fault for asking a question with such an easy gotcha answer.

What I would ask in response is, "how easy is it for you to have already had money before walking in the office today?" Seems pretty fucking difficult to go back in time and make your parents be rich. All I can do is complain, squeeze my eyes shut, and wish really hard.
