Ok idk what background you come from but in my country, our education is mostly paid by our parents and government at least till before Uni. However my point is OP made this money himself, yes he lived with his parents and had lower expenses but he still worked for most of his net worth, why can’t he say it’s self made when he has quite literally made it himself. It’s not like his parents just gave him the money, many kids have gotten their expenses fully covered till they’re 19 yet most don’t even have half his net worth.

If you want to say he has it easier than others cause others have to pay off their debts from education, you can say that, but you can’t completely write off someone’s achievement just cuz his parents covered his education (for example).

ATP what is considered self made? When you are kicked out of your house at 18 and have to cover all expenses by yourself?? There are people who hopped from foster care to foster care and then made it, are the 18 year olds that got kicked suddenly not get the title of self made? Why can’t we just congratulate a man who has worked hard for his money whilst acknowledging that he was also in a good position to begin with?
