If you make that your goal, there's a big chance you might end up disappointed. But if you follow the first or especially the second, there is a slight chance like in a lottery. You'll have bought your ticket."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:t53ijuodvbcjbislhyu6te4r/bafkreiasj7fdmhnbgc2qon4ajdjychixtxk55bqqmwrcrupli5djb3umb4)
