@JonUK41 Well, a stable middle class background and a good education still counts as a sizeable inheritance in my book. One which is not accessible to 99% of the world's population. I'm not a billionaire, but I am reasonably successful in my profession. Which I put down to the way I was brought up, the opportunties I have been given, and a good portion of luck. I've met enough very clever and hardworking people for whom life has not been so kind to have misgivings about the idea of a self-made genius.

@SunshineGirl luck always plays a role.

@AthrillatheHunt most?

@AthrillatheHunt Always remember, billionaires want us to blame immigrants and the poor for our problems so that we don't blame them.

Also, if you get your news from an outlet owned by a billionaire (and I get the feeling you watch FOX), then you're only being told what they approve of you knowing.

@SW-User Oprah has never told me to blame anyone . I have 2 degrees of separation from a billionaire ( a buddies sister married one ). I’m fascinated by how they think.

@AthrillatheHunt least of all her.

Well, that's splendid.

@Rolexeo most billionaires didn’t start as millionaires (zuck and Elon did come from money though ).

@Thrust Aww bless you. Your pension pot must have been hammered by Trump's tariffs. You voted for him, remember that :)

@SW-User

OK comrade. Maybe if you save for a year you can buy some new neeto jackboots
