I would have to respectfully disagree. Many, many successful entrepreneurs come from modest backgrounds, with little or no education. What they all have in common is the belief that hard work developing their business and laser focus on their customer's needs will make them successful. I often feel sorry for privileged young people - I think they have it much harder in some ways. They sometimes live in a bit of a bubble due to their upbringing and that makes it hard for them to understand the mass market. Also, they might have a harder time developing a work ethic and grit if they did not need to go to work at a young age or face adversity. The whole tiny VC funded startup club in SV may be an exception to this rule, but vast numbers of successful entrepreneurs in the USA never get a penny of VC $ and find some way to startup themselves.
