100% agree, and this isn’t specific to IT. Whether you want to open a grocery store or an automobile garage or an investment fund, starting your career with 5 or more years working for the big boys is really important. There are a lot of pr

I think it depends where you set the limit between “self made” and “inherited”. I don’t think it’s black or white Would Gates have made it if Mum wasn’t on the board of IBM? Would Bezos have made it without 200k from mum&dad ?
