I may be a bit jaded, a lot of rich people like to pretend they where poor and that their success is entirely self made. Stories like Theranos reinforce the image that the social circles are mostly static and unchanging no matter what the people involved are up to. I checked a bit late in this case but oce I saw some sparse evidence to the contrary in this case I corrected myself.
