@worldofceo.s: I earned it. No one gave it to me.” In 2023, former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz faced tough questions during a Senate hearing about the company’s treatment of its employees. When senators repeatedly brought up his billionaire status, Schultz pushed back. He explained that he grew up in subsidized housing, his parents never owned a home, and he built his wealth through his career. He also argued that he had shared his success with Starbucks employees. The debate raised a bigger question: should someone’s wealth alone determine how much they’re expected to give back? While businesses should be held accountable for how they treat their workers, being wealthy doesn't automatically tell the whole story. The lesson is to focus less on what others have and more on how they built it. Study their skills, decisions, and strategies, then use what you learn to build your own future. Because relying on someone else to create opportunities for you will only take you so far. Learning how to create opportunities yourself gives you more control over where you end up.

I don't know if it's real, but I saw a lady that runs a daycare say she makes tons of money and because employees don't complain about $17 a hour why should I pay them more

I agree he earned it but at the same time why are they not paying better wages if he can become a billionaire, then they should be able to pay better wages.

Where would people work if there weren't billionaires and millionaires? Every brand and business you know of would not exist anymore...

Nobody EARNS a billion dollars. In fact, it IS given to you... off the backs of many others.

If it was easy everyone would be billionaires. Kudos to him for coming from nothing and having a dream to get out of the cycle.
