alt Hacker NewsWhich premise do you disagree with?
1. Financial and career success are correlated with good test skills.
2. Good test skills are strongly influenced by genetics or early childhood.
If you agree with both then you expect some correlation between wealth and test performance.
I disagree that being born to rich parents == you have better genetics.
It's mostly privilege. And just being born in America is one of the biggest privileges wrt career and wealth.
