I was thinking about this logically. Typically, you are pushed to become a wagecuck. As a wagie slavie, you trade your time for money, so if you work 5 hours, you get 50 dollars, 10 hours, 100 dollars.
Many copemaxxers try to do 15 different sidehustles or 3 remote jobs simultaneously to increase their money. However, they have no time, and they never become rich.
The only way to become rich is to invest in something (so its value increases over time) or start a business (so you can leverage economies of scale independent of your energy investment). For example, if you create an ebook and sell it for 3 dollars a piece, the amount of money you make depends on how many copies you can sell, not directly the amount of hours you put in. Another example is Steve Ballmer, the CEO of Microsoft. He was a wageslave, working for his master Bill Gates, but Bill Gates gave him equity, and over time, that equity grew over time independent of his time invested. His salary as a CEO was "only" about 5-10 million, but what truly made him rich was his stock, which grew to several billion dollars.
