almost all of them.

Drive/IQ supercedes everything.

Same is true for a hoodrat who becomes a billionaire, they'll be poor again (or dead) before you know it.

Hell yea there was a Gordon gekko movie "wall street money never sleeps".

He goes broke and makes all his chit back but he has to scam his family.

Jeff Bezos was wildly successful in banking before he started amazon lmao. He didn't need to start amazon to be rich.

all of them.

they'd just go down and get a job with all their business experience and education.

if u say, no knowledge, no degree, no experience - well, they're no longer the same ppl then. Might as well make them disabled too then.
Weight Loss: Go carnivore or keto/low carb. Create calorie deficit. Buy packaged healthy meals if needed. Meat is good and heals, stop being lied to.

With absolutely no help or connections and starting in 2023, most likely none of them. Doesn't mean they won't become successful again but lighting doesn't strike twice for the same person.

Fair call.

Achieve relative success? Upper middle class or better?

All of them probably.

Be billionaires again? Eh, that would be unlikely given how many productive years they are likely to have ahead of them + record wealth creation over the past decade or so for those at the top + aging and decreasing populations in the wealthiest countries.

Zero. They'd all be murdered within days and their killer released without bond or prosecution.

I think Bezos could. Elon Musk I'm doubtful.

Bezos would at least become a multi-millionaire again
