I was not born wealthy, however most of my friends outside this business are. You should not discount peoples achievements like minte he tooka small business and made it huge. JHands on work.
Most people would screw it up.
So out of the say 25 guys I hang out with and play basketball with at an elite private school. Only 2 did something on their own. One sold a business for a couple million before he was 30. Then took over the family business, which was just a game for his mother (they own rubber plantations in Asia). Anyway he took over their business in Canada and turned it sround into a thriving publishing company.
The other guy started a cool online security company and sold recently.
So that is 2/25 Not good odds for super rich with connections.
So give pepple the respect they deserve. It takes a lot more than just money to make a big company.
From my phone. ..excuse the errors
