Let’s break the myth of “just work hard and you’ll make it.”
Sometimes, it’s not just hustle — it’s who you know & what you inherit.
❌ Bill Gates: “You just have to work hard…”
✅ Reality: His mom sat on the board of IBM — the same company that gave Microsoft its big break.
Connections > Grind.
❌ Jeff Bezos: “Have a burning desire to succeed…”
✅ Reality: His parents invested $300,000 to help him start Amazon.
(That’s over $700K in today’s money.)
Startup capital matters.
❌ Warren Buffett: “Be laser-focused and motivated…”
✅ Reality: His dad was a U.S. Congressman and owned an investment firm.
He was born into the financial world.
❌ Elon Musk: “Work 16 hours a day and sleep in the office…”
✅ Reality: His family had stakes in emerald mines and lived lavishly in South Africa.
He didn’t start from the garage. He started from generational wealth.
Moral of the story?
You’re not lazy — you’re just not a trust fund baby.
Keep grinding, but don’t fall for the fairy tales.
Play smart. Question everything.
& build your OWN version of success.
