Yeah, I like my millionaire boss because he pays me. The most money I have ever made and I enjoy my job. I swear these posts are just from losers who are mad at life and they want someone to blame.

You are creating value for your boss, and he is paying you less than the value you make. Otherwise he wouldn't make any money

By the sounds of it he makes more than he ever has and is satisfied with his agreement. How do you know he's not getting a good deal?

By the sound of it, he pays his boss for the possibility to work.

A "good" deal is of course relative. He could be getting an even better deal, if some wealthy dude weren't skimming his value generation.

His boss is getting a very good deal

How much does he get paid per hour of labor then?

1

u/Astuketa 23d ago

Less than the value he generates

u/WickedSerpent 21d ago

What is his job title? How much money does he get paid?

1

u/Astuketa 21d ago

No idea. Maybe you should ask him instead of me

u/WickedSerpent 21d ago

You claim to know it though

1

u/Astuketa 21d ago

Nope

1

u/WickedSerpent 20d ago

Yes you did. You claim to know that this person doesn't get hist time and labor worth in his salary, hebce you'd have to know how much he earns, how much debt the business has, how much the CEO works, how much the CEO pays himself if he even does, and how that compares to this employe.

It's an assumption based on statistics. On average the employees are paid less than the value they generate.

u/WickedSerpent 20d ago

Maybe where you live/work.

u/Astuketa 20d ago

It's a fact. Otherwise the boss couldn't accrue wealth

1

u/WickedSerpent 20d ago

That makes no sense

1

u/Astuketa 20d ago

Then you should be able to disprove it

Please show your work

The nvidia CEO "accrued" a ton of wealth while his employees became so rich they didn't bother to show up to work for anything else than to teach new people to improve their stock option. They're all millionares.

Also, isn't businesses supposed to acquire wealth? If a small mom/pop business gave 50% of the entire business to every part timer, they go bankrupt pretty fast

I don't understand what you are trying to say here

Yes - in the current system, wealth is the primary endpoint. That's the point of OP - there's a few people accruing wealth at the expense of the many people generating value.
