I freaking love this post!
It's so true! That is why many hard working people have a massive advantage these days ! It makes me mad that people down play my hard work.

I became self employed at the age of 23 (I'm 24 now).
I had to work 12-15 hours 7 days a week for a whole year to make it happen. I made almost nothing at first. I was just scraping by with my brutal warehouse job at UPS. I would come home from my part time job hardly able to walk because I was so exhausted. But I would jump on the computer and work on my business.
Eventually the hard work built up.
And I was able to quit that part time job. 9 months later and I'm still doing really well self employed.

People say I'm "lucky" I'm not lucky. I worked my ass off!
It makes me wonder how these people are going to survive in life expecting everything to be easy, or expecting those handouts.
