I think it&#x27;s the opposite, modern day culture celebrates individuals and their achievements as though they created their success on their own, that luck had nothing to do with it. We put people like Zuckerberg on a pedestal when at least some (much?) of their success comes from the luck of having the right parents, being born at the right time, having an interest that happens to be financially valuable and so on.<p>The downside to this attitude is that we look down on people who weren&#x27;t lucky, who had the misfortune to be born into an uneducated family, who weren&#x27;t in the right place at the right time and so on through no fault of their own.
