I can&#x27;t imagine you&#x27;re this obtuse for real but I&#x27;ll bite.<p>Pretty sure the backlash is against the &quot;kids&quot; part of rich kids - as the phrase &quot;rich kids&quot; insinuates second-gen wealth, a mass of money without having the responsibility or maturity to have earned it.<p>Very different story than for many of us self-made engineers, coming from the lower end of the economic bracket and taking advantage of scholarships and financial aid to get the skills that have now landed us well-paying jobs as <i>adults</i>, which we&#x27;ve worked 8-12-hour days to earn and keep.<p>We may be &quot;rich&quot; but we&#x27;re not spoiled &quot;rich kids&quot;, that make more sense?
