This is the most ridiculously untrue comment, and it's not only untrue its the worst possible attitude for the individual to have.

You prevent yourself from attempting anything to change your circumstances, while rolling around in self pity and building resentment towards successful people.

Too much of this destroys societies, and having it personally yourself destroys your life.

I appreciate that you think it's ridiculously untrue. This means that you're either already rich (and therefore lucky), or you think you might be rich soon definitely (but aren't right now). In both cases, your line of thinking isn't compelling. In the former, it's because you suffer from survivorship bias and in the latter it's because you're clearly not an example of what you're trying to say.

So, what happens to people who actually had nothing and got to being rich? That scenario doesn’t exist in your head?
