Wow. How years can give perspective. <poor kids sense their disadvantage. Oh how not true. It may feel like a disadvantage but everyone has some disadvantages. A kept child that never had to contribute to meeting their families bills can never understand what that is like. To not have the backstop of a bank account. Poor is not a indicator of effort for ivy-ers but a badge of success no kept young adult can ever experience. Just like families where the marriage failed, the children will never know a happy home. And the mostly unsaid sense of decision failure associated with divorces. Everyone has some disadvantages. Turn them into advantages. So my "advice" to a poor student is take your experience as a one-up to those around you that will never be able to know poor-mess. Most likely you earned your good future as it won't be given to you.
