My grandmother grew up on a sharecropper farm.
I was the first person in my WHOLE family to go to college. My brothers did the same. Our family hardly had 2 nickles to rub together. So we worked, earned scholarships, joined the military, took out loans, etc, to each pay for tuition and living expenses ourselves.
What we didn't do was waste time complaining about the reasons others had more or were doing better than us. We just worked hard to improve our situations.

Imagine that. Hard work and persistence pays off.
