> Massive over simplification but surely if everyone keeps trying to earn more money - that money has to come from somewhere, inflation happens and we're at where we are now all over again. The game is rigged.

Humans do not all learn at the same rate. We will not be "where we are now all over again", as many people will be much smarter and more experienced.

They're talking about earning though - not learning.

Earning more money over time is a skill, one that people learn after they are born and begin participating in the economy.

Not everyone acquires this skill at the same rate. Some never acquire it. Some acquire it and leave it at an average level. Some are constantly trying to level up this skill.
