What? No lol
There are entire societies and movements based on not letting this happen. Sounds like projection

There are PLENTY of dumb Muricans who make less than 30k a year who think their big break is coming.
Television and radio have been fueling American “exceptionalism” for so many decades that many DO believe that they will join the ranks of the billionaire class.

On a personal note, I don’t know anyone who has ever expressed this, and I’m getting up there in age.

I was alive before credit scores were a thing.
It’s a thing.

Guess I’m that dumb American. Made between 30 and 50k my whole life and I have a fully paid off house and 4 paid off vehicles on an acre of land in the country. And I’m in my early 40s. Life is good. Being rich and being wealthy are two different things. I consider myself wealthy.

I dont think this but I know if I do get one, I’ll just get a financial advisor to help manage it. Aside from that my life would stay the same as I don’t want family and friends hounding me for cash. I am happy with my situation but would like to get a family of my own sometime and somehow get a place for us to live in. I just want to be financially responsible and be paid a liveable salary amount
