You go to school, get an education, work hard, and make money.
You smoke weed, screw around in school, break the law and go to prison, and you don't make money.
I really don't get this idea why people think they are entitled to the results of the hard work of others.
Or more commonly:
Go to school, get and education, work hard, get laid off because your job can be done more cheaply overseas.
Get a job at a factory, work hard, get laid off after 20 years because your job can be done more cheaply overseas.
Screw around at school, drink lots of beer, get a cushy job because your family is well connected.
Hard work and education isn't a guarantee of success. It helps a lot, but connections and luck are just as important.
Theres the option of taking employment overseas....
