Not so. Adult success can be achieved by ingenuity and drive.
Jeff Bezos: “Born to Jacklyn Gise and Ted Jorgensen, he was adopted by Miguel Bezos, a Cuban immigrant, after his mother married him. As a child, he spent his summers laying pipes, vaccinating cattle and fixing windmills at his grandfather’s Texas ranch.“
Bill Gates: “ The Gates family atmosphere was warm and close, and all three children were encouraged to be competitive and strive for excellence.“
Steve Jobs: “ Steve jobs was born on February 24, 1955, in San Francisco to Abdulfattah Jandali and Joanne Schieble. Then he was quickly adopted by Paul and Clara Jobs, who were a working couple. And they could barely afford the finances for his college. At the age of 13, Steve Jobs called up Bill Hewlett and got a summer job at the HP factory. Steve and his friend Woz started making and illegally selling 'blue boxes' that allowed to make phone calls for free. Soon, Woz and Steve made the Apple I board and gave it to the Home-brew Computer Club.”
I have a relative who is a millionaire. He worked 90 hours a week laying tile.
Drive + necessity is there for all of us if we are of sound mind and physically able.
