Writing is about getting something down, not about thinking something up. Whenever I strive to “think something up,” writing becomes something I must stretch to achieve. It becomes loftier than I am, perhaps even something so lofty, it is beyond my grasp. When I am trying to think something up, I am straining. __When, on the other hand, I am focused about just getting something down, I have a sense of attention but not a sense of strain.__

This is for two main reasons: i) wealth is a stock that accumulates and generates resilient inequalities from an intergenerational point of view; and ii) wealth is a strong activator of the St. Matthew effect (i.e., the rich get richer).
