There is this saying "it is curve stick that you will hold to get straight stick" so if you have a little job or business that you are managing, you have to keep trying for your condition to get better, you don't have to depend on online work, they are alot of offline job that will make a billionaire, I strongly believe that is not your fault to be born poor, neither is your fault to die poor, because alot of people work so hard to be rich, but that dream of theirs never come true, is only few people that will make it in life but everyone try and wish that they are among this few people, you can still work harder to make it happen.
I don't really understand the saying you said, but if I refer to what you said in general here it seems to still revolve around building an old concept by continuing to work hard without having smart ways to make money to become rich in life. And if you still think that only a few people can be rich in this world, that is not quite right to say because every year there are always more new rich people who are born through smart work and the struggles they did in the past. So if you only talk about hard work without involving smarter ways, either online or offline, it will be difficult for someone to get rich.
And if you are not so sure about online jobs, why are you in this forum? Do you have another purpose by being here because you say there are many offline jobs that you can rely on and have the potential to make you rich in life. Now is no longer the time to debate a job online or offline because every job that can make money, then that job must always be continued by any means because the goal is to get money not just about working hard with very minimal income. So think smart before you waste more time with a job that is not right for your own life.
