Excellent article. I guess we all have a different road we must travel. That road may be an expressway or a dirt road. I suspect the tougher the journey, the more you learn and grow along the way. Those with the expressway haven't had the growth inducing experiences that shape the most interesting humans. "When the going gets tough, the tough get going"!

I watched Dinesh D' Souza debate . He gets a useful idiot. Who complains about about his White privilege. Put when asked to make a real sacrifice. Giving up his spot at a prestigious school. He clams up.

Col Joseph Lenertz I think it is the life lessons that are learned either through trial and error and pure desire to achieve something that you want. Or the lesson that is taught that just because you have a better way of life than someone else and achieving your goals will be more easily attained doesn't necessarily mean you will survive. There are people out there that have so much knowledge, but not a lick of common sense. And then there are those that are Street Smart and common sense thinkers and know how to survive.
There are some that have the balance of both knowledge and common sense, but not to many. The lesson should be this is what you have to do to survive, and make your way threw life not depending on others.
It would be interesting to see in 10 years where these same two young men are in life and how and what they had to do to get there.

SSG Keith Cashion yes it would be very interesting to follow their lives. One starts at the top and one at the bottom. In some ways, I think starting near the bottom gives you a motivation, a drive that starting near the top deprives you of. My own childhood was poor and I wanted a way out. Now I worry that I've spoiled my kids and they won't have the same drive.
