It's especially amazing since most of those same individuals aren't particularly impressive people at any level.
Oh yeah, I worked two jobs and put myself through undergrad and grad school without being a trust fund baby or amassing a large student loan debt, but it's luck that got me where I am.
I'd say my story is pretty impressive, considering I was once a high school dropout that slept in my car.
Fortunately for me, I had enough pride and self-worth to overcome the stupidity of my youth, rather than just claim that I'm a victim of big bad businesses and slurp on the government boob for the rest of my life. I'd say that people that do that and those that enable them aren't impressive at any level.
