A full explanation would take a while, but here are a few points:<p>1) Reality is generally continuous. Anytime you see a discontinuity in life, it means someone is probably skimming off the top. (e.g. leveling up)<p>2) We're all basically the same. Anytime you do something in return for social status, you're probably getting fucked in other ways. (e.g. going to law school)<p>3) Wealth is generally abundant. Any time you're doing work to get something scarce, someone else is probably making money off what you're doing. (e.g. buying limited edition stuff.)
