I would rather earn 1% off a 100 people's efforts than 100%

Summary

This quote suggests that instead of relying solely on one's own efforts and abilities, it is more beneficial to collaborate with others and benefit from their collective efforts. Rather than exerting all the effort alone and trying to achieve everything independently, it is more profitable and efficient to harness the power of a group and earn a smaller percentage from each individual's efforts, resulting in greater overall success.
