    There’s a difference between skills based on practice and exposure because of your prarents, and then merely fact that your parents are rich and famous. I don’t blame the kid for taking advantage of the opportunity they got, no worries there. At the same time, it’s not a level playing field, so we should not pretend it is.

      Life isn’t even close to a level playing field. The family you are born into had the greatest effect on your future success than nearly any other factor.
