Bezos was still fairly well off considering his parents were able to give him a 100k+ loan for Amazon. I'm not saying that it diminishes any of his accomplishments, just that I think it's pretty pointless to try and normalize privilege since everyone has had some "privilege" in their life dependent on perspective.

It does, very few parents can afford to give a 100k loan, that's a massive leg up most have no access to.
