well yea if you put it that way, it wont be peanuts anymore, they will become walnuts....my terms of peanuts is exactly how you stated, if you had 1000 dollars and make 1%, its nothing.... and that falls on most 9-5 jobs out there right after school...considering you still have loans/debts....you will be stuck with peanut butter lmao....and yes, it will take forever to start from scratch...thats why it takes money to make money.... the more you invest on whatever your goal is, the faster the returns should be considering you've researched on your investment and not just blindly dumping the money into a startup you think is profitable......you will be making walnuts in no time ;)

Boy, ain't that the truth....now that I think about it, you might still be making "peanuts" when you have more money, but those peanuts in relation to other things in life are massive. What I mean is, you have 1000 bucks, make 1% a year, it is nothing. Have 10,000,000, still make peanuts 1%, but that's outstanding compared to what everyone else has to make working 8-5. From playing poker, it's the same way. Takes FOREVER to start from scratch and make $2-3 hr...but make peanuts higher up and it's easily 20-100/hr, even though it is still relatively small in grand scheme of things.
