Ellison, Jobs, Bloomberg, Amancio Ortega were born to middle class or poor homes. Behind every billionaire is a great deal of luck whether rich or poor.
It’s not something one works or outsmarts their way into.
Most people whether born to kings or peasants will not become self-made billionaires. We should focus our efforts on eliminating poverty and ensuring there’s a solid middle class/upper middle class instead of focusing on the 1 in a million people that’ll become ultra-rich.
