It's a guess, which I already implied. I said "probably". Maybe it's not close. Never stated it as fact. Just said that I'm guessing hardly anyone accomplishes all of the feats that you said are easy. If I'm right, it would mean they're probably not easy.

Uh, whaaaa?!?!?

You just did, as a matter of fact!

You said that the following things are easy:

- going to school (which I assume means getting a college degree...it's NOT easy)

- getting a job (full time? Not easy)

- getting married

- having kids

- staying married (about 50% do, that's documented)

- not doing "stupid shit" (well, that's scientific...)

- saving money (impossible if unemployed)

- retiring (economists have warned since the 1980s that retirement will not be a reality for most Americans in the 21st century)

- and passing away (Congratulations. The one thing that is easy, and that 100% of people will do)

"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
