Inherited wealth gives you an unearned advantage. Therefore, on average for any given slice of society, the least talented members will be the children of privilege. The more money you’ve been given the more likely your peers outclass you.

This is evident to most people, but surprisingly not obvious, in my experience, to the people most directly affected.
