Why getting rich is simpler in 2026
The argument: making money is easier than ever, and the main thing holding most people back is that they never try — encouraging for anyone willing to act, harsh on everyone else.
- There are more young millionaires now than at any point in history.
- AI has put the world's know-how within reach, so almost anyone can get a workable money-making plan in minutes.
- Ask AI how to make $10,000 this month and at least one idea it gives back will actually be viable.
- The only gap between the person who made the money and the person who didn't is that one of them tried it.
- Competition is weaker than ever because most people simply won't put in the effort.
Outlook: The tools keep getting cheaper and better, so the advantage will keep shifting to the few people who act on them.
