2. Legacy Ivy admission
3. Nepotism hire
4. Seed capital from family money
5. Club memberships
6. Personal assistant, nanny, ghostwriter

@MostlyHarmless Wrong. Sergey Bryn: poor immigrant; family shared a small flat with grandparents. Steve Jobs: adopted by a couple which wasn’t well off.

@Mordko @MostlyHarmless It's always possible to find the tiny handful of exceptions to the rule. That doesn't negate the rule.

@Soozcat @MostlyHarmless saying “its a rule” does not make it so. In fact, if you are healthy, no excuse to be unsuccessful if you live in a rich country. Get qualified and you’ll be fine.
