Does a Promotion and Salary Increase Really Help You Turn Things Around?



Stop fooling yourself. A 10% annual salary increase while your boss’s assets grow by 50% is not an exception; it’s an economic law. Piketty has long calculated this: the return on capital always outpaces wage growth. No matter how hard you work, you’re just struggling to stay afloat.

Want to break the cycle? There’s no other way but to transform from a wage earner into a "micro-capitalist." You can start with just 100 yuan; the key is to make your money work like capital.

**First Trick: Cut Unnecessary Spending**

Capitalists are the most frugal. They ask: with 100 yuan in a liquidity pool, how much can it generate in a year? If you have this awareness, every expense can be converted into future income.

**Second Trick: Let Code Work for You**

Put your idle money into DeFi pools. Whether it’s slisBNB or lisUSD/USDT pairs, these aren’t game tokens—they’re your 24-hour employees. They don’t take holidays or sick leave; they generate cash flow for you every second through trading fees and interest. This is called capital exploitation, but the exploited entity is digital, not human.

**Third Trick: Compound Rolling**

This is the key. Most people’s mining earnings are spent or held, earning only small profits. True capitalists? They reinvest all mining income. The number of your "employees" explodes exponentially, and so do your returns.

One day, the money you earn while sleeping surpasses what you spend while awake, and the game is truly won.

This is not motivational talk. It’s a necessary choice after understanding the underlying logic of the economy.

Wait, there's a problem with this logic. What about the risk of DeFi pools running away? Not mentioning it?

Ah, DeFi pools sound good, but it feels like just blueprints. --- Getting a promotion and a raise really doesn't do much; it's better to play around with liquidity mining. --- Compound interest is the real deal, but only if the principal keeps up. --- It sounds nice in theory, but in practice, you still have to take risks. --- How can you throw 100 bucks into DeFi? The fees probably eat it all up. --- This theory sounds clear, but most people will still fail in execution. --- The idea that capital exploits objects is digital—this is kind of interesting haha. --- Is hodl really right or wrong? Feels like it contradicts what the article says. --- Can the dream of making money while sleeping really come true, or is it just another way to sell anxiety? --- The key is to find stable yield farming pools; not all can survive. --- I just want to ask, what do you do during a collapse? --- So the core logic is basically exploiting the system, right? --- It still seems to come down to timing and luck in the end.

ngl this promotion really is a painkiller; there's no way to turn things around, you still have to rely on compound interest. A DeFi pool fanatic, speaking the truth—making money while sleeping is the ultimate goal. Sell that latte, then go for 100x leverage... just kidding haha. Wait, how's the yield on the lisUSD pair right now? Can it really beat inflation? Capital exploitation targets code, not people. I like this wording; it sounds comfortable.
