      I worked my ass off to get my degrees and professional license plus getting a foothold in the industry and so on. I barely made it - and I have all the advantages in the world. It’s really really hard to succeed even if you have everything going for you. The “make your own luck” and bootstraps mentality is pure hubris IMO. They want to pretend they are special and didn’t have any support I guess.
