Events That Actually Matter
westandwiththe99percent:

I’m 22 years old, choosing between law schools without even looking at the costs of tuition. About to graduate college with no debt, and I won’t need to take out any loans for law school either.
Until recently, I had no understanding of the concept of education as an investment.
I have done well in school because, like all the institutions I encounter, school is rigged in my favor.
I don’t even know how wealthy I am because I know very little about money, and the majority of mine is not liquid. But I know I will have several times what I need to live well if I never find a job.
I have earned very little money in my life, but I have way more than anyone needs. Obviously, I don’t deserve it.
I am the 1 percent, I stand with the 99 percent.

Why aren’t more people like this?
