I suppose you could put it like that. There two other angles to it. Poor people cannot afford what more well-off people can afford. To supplement our food, we always had chickens and a vegetable patch. Someone had to water the vegetables and feed the chickens else we wouldn't have enough food. The other side of the coin is that planting vegetables and growing chickens gives you a sense of achievement and self-confidence. You learn that if you water plants every day in a few months you will have food. This lesson and confidence can be applied to other fields. So you know that if you apply yourself to something every day you will reap what you sowed. This is why then these kids would be successful. I don't think you have to be poor to learn these lessons.
