Dumb example. People who choose to ignore an education and/or are lazy
don't have the option to choose a $100K income.

or they could be black, jewish, women, latino, etc.


The list of black, Jewish, female, and Latino millionaires in the US is
huge. Minorities have all of the opportunities of non-minorities. At
the rate we are going we may have a black president in our lifetime. We
may even have a female Jewish president. It only takes a family that
cares and, in most cases, a decent education. After that, it's up to
the individual.
