Do top leaders or presidents of countries or big corporations and businesses do better economically because they were brought up from a rich family background with wealthy parents or from a poor family background with poor parents?
Or better put, does the financial status of ones family background, that is, does one being born and brought up by rich or poor parents, have a lot to do with how well they do later in life when they attain leadership roles in big corporations and businesses or become the president of a country?
A financially advantaged family can provide opportunities such as better education, private tutoring, overseas experiences, or attending prestigious schools. This can be a significant advantage on the path to leadership positions. Wealthy or well-connected families can provide their children with a strong social network.
Leadership positions in business or politics are often supported by connections. In short, a family's financial background and education are all major factors.
