This is not true.

If that was the case, then how come most rich kids never flip burgers or stock shelves like the rest of us had to? They don't. Mom and Dad usually have it all cut out for them. I've never seen a Kardashian wash a dish or a Trump scrub a floor. But yeah, everyone else is "lazy".

The bigger sham is the federal reserve printing unlimited fiat for the wallstreet bankers/hedge funds and corporations at 1.5% interest while most Americans go into debt at 20% interest.

And it isn’t just for the children of billionaires. Your parents, their education, their acquaintances, your ability to participate in the activities or extracurriculars of good schools, or your freedom from fear and want. These are all assists that don’t exist for everyone.

There are a crapton of intangibles that go into that word "privilege".
