      They're smart and I'm not. People can have different capabilities. I happen to be pretty limited as I'm just stupid.

        Oh no, like how did you end up making friends with all these people? In my experience highly paid tech people are only friends with and only date other highly paid tech peopel

          Probably school or childhood friends.

          I still hang with my childhood friend who is a CFO of a small real estate development firm despite being below the poverty line myself.

          And to be fair to him he hates his job and his boss and peers and is looking for another position
