      Yes I will take marginal amount of risk but no I won’t gamble everything

      Some people get the opportunity to try things risk free, and others need to risk everything so if they fail the consequences are very negative

      It’s different kind of risk when failure means you may not eat or become homeless.

      The rich do not incur that kind of risk when they engage in “entrepreneurial-ship”

          They were given bootstraps to pull themselves up by, so everyone else should be able to pull themselves up by their bootstraps too!

            My parents were immigrants themselves and I immigrated again to a different country in my 20s. I arrived with a backpack of clothes, an old laptop and money to pay a shared apartment for a few months.

            But cool story you came up with to justify your prejudice.
