Original caption

Rich is the school pickup line at three in the afternoon. Anybody can look rich on the weekend. It's easy to fake and easy to sell. Three o'clock on a school day is when you find out who owns their calendar and who rents it. One man asks permission to see his own kid. The other one just goes. #wealth #freedom #entrepreneur
