Not OP but my best friend in High School was basically OP. My family was "house broke" and I never had allowance, everything was "no" (literally everything) and I learned early that I had to make for myself. Worked through High School, saved up for the gadgets I wanted, etc.
Best Friend came from a wealthy doctor's family. Large house. Every game console, new computers/cameras/etc basically every 10mo. He isn't passionate. He never had to work to put two and two together. It was a credit card away. He got whatever he wanted whenever he wanted (I wouldn't call it spoiled, just more so "available"). He just doesn't have drive because he never _had_ to. It's like the quote "If you can, give your kids enough to do something, but don't give them enough to do nothing."
