I've spent the last six years working very closely with some of the least successful barely sentient creatures every born on this earth and they all have one thing in common ... they are wake every day (or afternoon) with on overwhelming drive to screw their life up even more than it's already screwed.Wow, I usually value your opinions but this one is just stupid.
How much easier is it to accomplish something if you have access to capital even if it weren't a tremendous amount? Would could having access to money buy you that would help you climb out of a dire situation you were born into?
Some of them came from screwed up families, many more of them came from good families. A few grew up as wards of the system, most did not.
Every person starts with a tabula rasa. Everyone in this country has the same capital ... free education on which to build. What they decide to do with that capital, even at a very early age, can make more difference than coming from generations of poverty.
People invest capital in great ideas. Oprah Winfrey, Steve Jobs, Ralph Lauren, Richard Branson and a host of others around the world came up with good ideas, attracted the capital, and made huge successes of themselves.
One thing they all had in common. They all started with nothing, used their brains and their drive to make something of themselves. I don't think any one of them would describe there success as easy.
