This is true everywhere tbh. Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos all came from families that were upper-middle class or rich.
It's not a bad thing imo since families should strive to improve their situation with every generation, but it's important to highlight that rags-to-riches stories are extremely rare.
There are probably many who also got their visa rejected and were stuck with huge loans for their studies and an Indian salary, or had to move to EU/CANZUK countries as a second option.
- preommr 4y ago> upper-middle class or rich. Upper middle class covers a lot of commonplace jobs like dentists, accountants, engineers, etc. Also you're leaving out lots of people that do come from even more humble origins like Steve Jobs, Oprah, Jay Z, Soros, etc.
- noufalibrahim 4y agoTrue about the people you mentioned but there were several others in that same group (upper middle class) who wasted their opportunities and didn't get anywhere. These people you mentioned are an exception and there are lessons to take away from that.
