Being a President of Unites States is a privilidge, surely you dont dispute that?
Are you putting in the work to become President? If not, you are not allowed to call him priviliged.

Being the Pope is a privilidge too, do you even want to be the Pope?
If I don't want to be the Pope, should I be unable to recognise that it's a position of power, privilidge and prestige?
If working at Google such a privilege and is the goal, work towards it. Like so many other people did, take up a student loans and put yourself through school, build your resume, take up projects, internships, work experience etc. Prep for interviews, what ever it takes. Then you can take the job and enjoy the "spoils", what ever those are.
One can't just decide not to put in the work and then look at the guy who did and say... privileged.
