People that have loans they need to pay back and no rich parents to pay them for you don't go out and start companies. "Going out and starting a company" is for the economically privileged.
- patio11 11y agoPeople that have loans they need to pay back and no rich parents to pay them for you don't go out and start companies. Comments like this may be well-intended but do not provide advice which is useful for people without certain forms of economic privilege and may be perceived as insulting to people without certain forms of economic privilege who did, indeed, go out and start companies.
- adenadel 11y agoI don't think that this should be insulting to someone who came from the lower/middle class and started a company. They are the exception not the rule. It just means that what they did is particularly impressive.
