For the guy it is worse than privilege. It is pure luck he was born into a good family and not say alcoholics in a ghetto. And that they managed to exploit the limited upwards mobility they had. I wouldn't call it a privilege. Privileges are earned or given.

Three role of multiple draws of the luck is underrated. Generic lottery, family lottery, location lottery, avoidance of terrible things in life. You can have way better chance in a society where inequality is low and/ or social mobility upwards is high.

The privilege part is him earning the spot in a prestigious school.

If his parents wouls get the home for free it would be, but they earned it.

The parents earned it, he didn't. He inherited those opportunity from the choice of his parent.

> Fruits of hard work are not a privilege.

Hard work and privilege are completely orthogonal. His parent where hard working, but also had the opportuinity to emigrate somewhere where they could safety reap the reward of said hard work

> Assuming that wealth = privilege

Wealth is a form of privilege, especially inherited wealth.

> shows only the bitterness of the person making such an assumption.

Sure... Let's do personal attack instead of staying on the topic
