I agree that many businesses are started by immigrants and lower income. I think the title of the article is sloppily worded but I believe it’s more so referring to tech startups. Unicorn founders are overwhelmingly from wealthy families.

This is likely the most accurate take. Psychologically humans tend to categorize the median with the extreme outliers. That’s why we eat these kind of articles up, when instead we should be talking about how to start a successful business without coming from a rich family.
