"Someone will always be getting richer faster than you. This is not a tragedy." --Charlie Munger

I don't think he's complaining about someone getting richer faster. He's complaining about someone who has less skills and getting paid more.

Complaining is the wrong word. I'm aware more than ever now that what I earn is entirely in my hands and my ability to sell myself.

Having the confidence in you're own ability in order to sell yourself for more money is what I was talking about.

If others are earning more than me with an ability I deem to be less than mine, then I need to learn the skill they are better than me at. Being able to sell themselves.
