Wesley Dixon's Comments

In the United States if people start out in a very low-paying job, can they still become quite wealthy if they work hard enough?
Definitely. I’ve seen many, many people that started out as day laborers and then they eventually get enough experience or they work hard enough to obtain the approval of their employer to such a state that they move up due to their energy and due to their enterprise and their willingness to work.  

Is money distributed in a fair way in the United States?
That’s a difficult question. Yes, I think so. It’s based upon what you work for and that you can always change jobs and hopefully educate yourself to obtain a higher paying job. The problem comes in with the con men or some of the people who want to make money on your money. You got to be real careful with some of these so-called advisors, financial planners sticking your money in Wall Street. A lot of times people do not protect themselves from others. Let the buyer be wary.
