 That’s not really hustling. That’s just work. Hustling is sort of a new cultural term.

 I guess. 

To me someone with drive to get things done is a hustler but I see what you’re saying.

I still think it’s essential to have the drive to get up and make things happen. 

I have never met a billionaire (that I know of) but most millionaires I’ve met over the years worked hard and had a lot of drive.

Some examples: Chiropractor that had the drive to open more than one practice. Several construction GC’s. Lots of immigrants from the Caribbean/South America/Middle East which opened restaurants, hotels, operate other businesses. They all had drive/hustle to push them above others.

Even billionaires like Bezos/Jobs/Musk hustled or still do. Don’t you think?

I do agree there are some exceptions, Munger was a lawyer but he disnt seem to lift a finger lol

 I know a few billionaires. The ones who made it entrepreneurial are hustlers. The ones who made it as investors are chill.
