On-screen text
The C students run the world
The B students work for them
And the A students are the doctors, the lawyers, and the CPAs
And that's basically how the world is
You mentioned that schools don't teach anybody about money
What is a financial principle that you would instill in the younger generation?
Don't go to school
until you know how to make money
School won't make you rich.
