I am not denying the rich for proving themselves that they are capable to perform without parental support. BUT they are what they are partly due to parent giving them "support" when they are in their younger days, giving them an edge. (they can afford tuition teacher,etc)

However , there are poor people making it there , but their effort is far more than the rich. I am impressed with such people, and it call for my respect.

Funny enough , there will be people refusing the see the facts , cold hard facts.

Anyway this is how the world works , and precisely the reason why all strive to make it .... cos the rich and elite will have BETTER OPPORTUNITY which the poor will only dream about it ...
Thumbs up! I strongly agree with you. But i believe those without support and succeeded would have a better life in future.
