Silly Twitter fight aside, the key piece of advice that us regular non-rich folk should take away is this:

"Your first goal after university should be to build yourself a safety net."

Once you have $10k in the bank, you can start taking risks just like those privileged kids that are starting all the startups with their unfair advantages.

Best of all for us, we work in software, where socking away your first ten thousand dollars happens automatically after landing an entry level dev gig, provided you don't go out of your way to blow your entire outlandish salary on silly possessions.
