These people's ancestors came to America long before you.  They accumulated wealth a long time ago.  Many of them walked through the doors of Harvard and Yale and got the best education.  Indra Nooyi worked hard just like them.  She got the best education and it looks she got some good "sahayak" genes to go along with it.  Don't be jealous.  Go out there and rich too!!

So what? Go and get truly educated on the rise of the american industrialist. Harvard and Yale did not rise whole from the heads of Zeus and become the standard bearers they are. Like our Queens college they were the academies of the privileged class to perpetuate the privileged class and still do so to some extent.  Do not select the one or two who make it as the measure of how the rest  got there. White privileged is real and the legacy of blue bloods get morons on the up tract to the board rooms more than smarts.  And why would I be jealous? As I said you do not know me or where I got my education.  I can see why you like that boorish Trump.

Trump is not a lazy man.  He has a good Wharton education and he knows how to create opportunities for himself.  Some of us have a "pity me" mentality and we blame others for our failure.  We think that successful people are bad people.  Jagdeo was president of a country for 11 years and when he build a nice house many people were Pi$$ing their pants.  And he did not go to Queens College or any blue blood institution.  He worked very hard, endured sleepless nights,  and took a lot of insults from the jealous ones.  Yet he endured and still remains loyal to his cause.
