i grew up in a small town in alaska raised by inbred hillbillys that i haven't spoken to in 15 years. my environment had nothing to do with whether or not i would make money. what did was when i finally realized that i never wanted to be like them and decided to take responsibility for myself because no one else would. i woke up and realized i had to leave. i left. i busted my ass at everything i did... i did it for the exact opposite reason you said... i did not want to be like all the fucktards i grew up with.
thats a pathetic argument. obviously environment plays a role on shaping your views, habits etc. however, that has nothing to do with making money and being successful. no matter what, you have to open your eyes, work hard, make sacrifices, set goals and do what it takes to achieve them, no matter how hard it is.
booo fucking hooo... i am a minority so i have more excuses not to succeed than you do.
... well, too bad. that thinking will only hurt you... not me.

Plucking an incredibly small handful of people out of an even smaller pile doesn't prove anything. Weeding out a select few does not represent the majority same as Bill Gates and Trump doesn't represent every caucasian in America. Your conquest over your environment doesn't mean shit because you don't represent any minorities' majority. Congratulations, you were capable, but just as easily as you busted your ass the color of your skin could, (and as I'm told often does in America), have kept you from succeeding
regardless of how hard you worked.
I'm not even saying minorities deserve a pass on anything.. I'm saying it's pathetic to throw down that everyone has an equal chance because they don't, it's bullshit, and documented year about horrible school systems and subpar communities. People make it seem like poor communities can magically fucking make money off the same poor people that live there by owning businesses. Not going to happen because they don't have any money to begin with. See how that works?
From what I've read those people who live there were put in those communities when good 'ol segregation finally was broken. So it's not like blacks, for instance, were given golden farms and then they lost it, see what I'm saying? Average society has an incredibly higher chance to succeed. Most Americans like to relax on the thought that everyone is equal.. most black's grandmothers were victims of segregation. So you're talking about.. maybe.. 3 generations of starting ground till now where as the rest of the country has had.. how many is it?
Have to forgive my grammer.. English is not my first language.
