True or False?

You come in the world a silverpiece and its entirely up to you, not your circumstances, whether you upgrade to a goldpiece or downgrade to a copperpiece.
Your circumstances can be dire and you can still come out an improved person, and your circumstances can be wonderful and you can still come out a worse person.
True or false?

Loaded question Asante. Why don't you make a poll on how far people can cum or something that's tangible.

Stal, studies, and numerous ones at that, show gold pieces tend to stay gold, silver pieces tend to stay silver, and most people come out as copper pieces and stay that way for generations. None of this meritocracy bullshit, just cause a handful of people were either so gifted they couldn't help but rise, or they rose for dumb luck (also heavily supported by studies). Look em up, about generational poverty, lack of mobility in social hierarchy and earnings, pretty interesting stuff if you are into that.

This is quite correct, you can transmute metals, but the energy costs to do it is "impractical" is a pretty big understatement Psi

Was looking at the FMA human transfiguration one, but its a hell of intricate piece with small writing in it and all sorts of shit.

Yeah, it's the writing I've had hard time finding a high res pic. I know the writing is actually a quote from a famous treatise on alchemy, but I don't know the order.
