Not only is this a stupid and off-topic reaction to the original
statement -- nobody ever implied that the person was a "success" or not
-- it happens itself to be a rather odd and wildly inaccurate
pronouncement.  Using wealth as a measure of success is THOUSANDS of
years old.  Did you mean 21st-century B.C.??

I thought you measured "success" in the amount of 78s a person had in
their milk crates!

And what would YOU plan on doing if you found yourself stranded in the
Sahara desert with nothing but milk crates full of (melting)
78s???????????
