@fun4us2b Thanks you, from a not-so-mighty but very grateful and amused Zeus:)

@Zeusdelight Turns out you are right on! I worked hard and did alright, so I never related to this saying, but clearly others have not been as lucky as me....

@fun4us2b I think it is an oppressive term used by wealthier people as the reason why some people struggle.

You and I are lucky, worked hard and have done okay.

My Grandfather worked like a trojan all his life and was cheated out of his superannuation by a deceitful employer using a tontine system.

I am sorry to say there are many others, who have not seen the fruits of their very hard labour or have been promised pay increases that never come etc etc

@Zeusdelight Agreed - it's a not so subtle evil when employers cheat the ones that caused their success...
