> Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos did

Elon Musk was born into an already wealthy family and failed his way upward.

Jeff Bezo's wife was already a millionaire when he started Amazon

Neither of them had "hard work" or "grit", despite the whitewashing both of them have done of their rags-to-riches story. They are where they are because of generational wealth and familial connections.

There are a million and one rich kids with generational wealth and familial connections. Yet not all of them turn into Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos. Luck is assuredly a big component of success, always, but saying things like Musk "failed his way upward"... lol no
