Re: Wealthy aren't responsible for their own success
There's an element of luck in everything we do. Should that stop you from taking pride in your own success? No, I don't think so. The world works on luck and chance. It influences everyone, probably in more-or-less equal measures, so it's unfair to pick out one group of people - namely 'the wealthy' - and say that they aren't responsible for, and therefore imply that they don't "deserve", their wealth when in fact no one is 100% responsible for anything they do, including getting involved in crime, the type of job you have, having little money or indeed having lots of it.
