Author, over the course of at least 15 years, worked 2 jobs to fund his way through college and went on to start several businesses. He credits his work ethic and contends that he sacrificed a great deal to get where he ended up. However, he feels like Sanders guilts and scapegoats people like him for being millionaires who &quot;everything was handed to (...)&quot; and &quot;don&#x27;t deserve the money they made&quot;.<p>He descends into bitter resentment towards &quot;people like the smart Yale student who majors in something useless, travels the world, and then graduates with $100,000 in debt that people like me should pay off via higher taxes.&quot; People much like &quot;(...) many of the college students [he&#x27;s] hired in the last few years. They study what they love — philosophy, political science, art, regardless of whether or not they have good job prospects. They travel. Mostly they seem to go to Vietnam and Cambodia. They eat out a lot more than [he] did at their age. They know all the trendy restaurants and hot bars.&quot;<p>Author&#x27;s experience exclusively reflects of class envy in the Northeast United States: trust fund babies vs. hard-working self-made entrepreneurs, old money vs. new money, liberal arts majors vs. business majors, carefree (careless) people vs. an adversarial &#x27;the world is rigged against me&#x27; work ethic. He unironically suggests &quot;Unfortunately, we&#x27;ve come to believe that achievement should be easy. Changing that attitude is the first step towards making yourself more successful.&quot; His worldview is framed along this dichotomy; if you&#x27;re not one, you must be the other. In his view, socioeconomic background has two discrete states: rich by birth and not-yet-rich, race and gender are not considered, and attitude is paramount.
