Why There is a 1% and then the Rest of Us

In the parable of the talents a wealthy landowner goes off on a business trip and leaves three servants 5, 2, and 1 talent respectively. The servant who got 5 talents invested and made a 100% profit and now had 10 talents. The one with 2 made 2 more to give him 4. The servant who was given 1 talent buried it out of fear he would lose it and was left with just the 1 talent that was given to him. When the landowner returned the servant with 5 made 5 more and the landowner said 'you were faithful over a few things so I will appoint you over many'. The same was said for the one who received 2. When the servant who got 1 came to the master he said he was scared of him so he hid his talent and did not invest it. The master said 'give me your talent which the master in turn gave to the one who now had 10. 

You see the people who invest and take risks usually make a profit which they can invest in other things and the cycle repeats over and over. People who don't invest never supercharge their money and never gain the capital to put towards new investments. It takes money to make money is actually true but how much money it takes to make money can be a very small amount. The 99% choose not to take risks that the 1% will take. So use your small capital as bait and cast your line into the markets and learn how to invest.
