Did you read my comment?
> You don't have to be a CEO or a professional hockey player to be successful
That person breaking rocks at the quarry would be a lot less successful if he didn't work hard. Having this cynical attitude that hard work is not rewarded is a real sign of privilege. It's not an option for most people, and their life would be considerably more difficult if they don't work hard. Not everyone has parents nearby with a spare basement
