Missing: Working Class Founders
&#x27;Working class&#x27; people start plenty of businesses, but maybe not many tech businesses.<p>Having enough personal savings to afford to work on a project without pay for some time does not directly relate to background unless you have never work before and rely in mum and dad... It relates to your capacity to save, i.e. your previous job, which in turns usually relates to you education level&#x2F;degree (which also impacts what type of business you are likely to start).<p>So, again, it boils down to investing in education for all. Meritocracy, not class background.
