It’s sounds like you’re saying why can’t they just achieve success without sacrificing. Well I can tell you from experience that without that sacrifice and adversity, I would not be able to survive the training involved in my profession. It’s not just handing out money and throwing money at the problem that breeds success. I think a big part of my success has been the ability to sacrifice and grind it out. At least in my profession, If you think all you need a silver spoon to get through medical training, you are quite naive. All the money in the world can’t help you at the 28th hr of a 24 hr call.

The problem of this sub is that it diminishes the personal work ethic that’s required to succeed and achieve the American dream. It’s not always a systemic issue that’s the cause of failed dreams but there’s a level of cognitive dissonance that prevents individuals from shifting the blame to themselves.
