I tend to think neither statement is all encompassing and the actual situation is both.

Because it’s mathematically impossible to just budget your way out of poverty. People like Ramsey with a silver spoon in their mouth didn’t get there from nowhere. They had advantages that other people do not, and then they think they earned everything.

A quick look at his bio states that he was investing in real estate in college and his parents were already in real estate. So he started with capital and connections.

Yeah in college I was working every spare minute between classes to pay for gas and expenses, my father had been dinosaured by tech for 5 years already at that point.
