This is a nice cover-story because it's endlessly plausible. We don't know the circumstances of your life. If you say you're struggling just to get by with your family, we have no choice but to believe you.
And yet, in this industry–and especially in this forum–I know many are following an ideology that values success only at another's expense, and not in collaboration with others. In a game theoretical sense, defectors.
>Most people are busy trying to free their children, spouse, and immediate family
what you're basically saying is that most people are primarily concerned with their communities. that's true and it's not even unreasonable but what's also true is that the communities of most people in positions of power are not marginalized/precarious.
I'm not suggesting either, just that hoarding resources for your immediate family does not sound as altruistic or venerable as hoarding resources for "your community."
but i'm not advocating for this? in effect i agree with you. i'm exactly pointing out that it's disingenuous to say that someone is protecting their family and that it does end up being just greed.

There's more than one way to feed your family.
