The crucial difference between people who make money and those who don't: The invisible structure of the "information gap" that effort alone cannot overcome.
The difference between people who make money and those who don't isn't a difference in ability. It's not a difference in effort either.
"You can't make money if you don't have money" – Some people instinctively want to argue against this statement. They say that anyone can make money if they try hard enough. They believe that if you have ideas and the drive to execute them, capital will follow.
There will be pros and cons, but in reality, this structure is truly unequal.
The invisible structure called the "information gap" is what separates those who can earn money from those who cannot.

Why does good information tend to gather around wealthy people?
Money attracts good information, investment opportunities, and a flow of chances.
Conversely, people without money don't even receive that information. The starting line is fundamentally different.
As a structure, information, connections, and money all flow disproportionately to those who "have" them. The more you win, the easier it becomes to win. This is the essence of capitalism.
Just getting angry and saying "this is unfair" won't change anything. First, you have to accept this structure as a "fact."
The only way to escape poverty is to thoroughly build up your capital.
Thoroughly create the seed money.
Exchange life and time to create the initial capital. Halfhearted efforts won't do. It's not about earning a decent amount while balancing life, but rather going all in first.
And from there, raise funds based on the idea. What this means is that you can leverage life and time. It's about forcibly sending yourself into realms unreachable by your own labor, through capital.
If you skip the "building up capital" stage and immediately aim for "freedom" or "fulfillment," you'll never reach the starting line.
To be on the side that earns money – only those who understand the structure win.
The important thing is that saying "I want to live freely" or "I want to make a living doing what I love" without understanding this structure means you'll be trapped in the same tier forever.
First, understand the structure. Then, become the user of the structure.
Only then can one fully commit to ideas, creativity, and altruism. There's an order to things.
This time, I discussed everything about the "stages of capital" - what to be aware of at each stage from 10 million to 100 million to 1 billion to 10 billion yen, and how to overcome each stage.
