My mom had me very early in life, perhaps 21. My dad worked very hard, I almost never saw him. Meanwhile he managed to get me in an average school and made sure I studied English, which at a time was gamble as not much people believe things would turn out that well for somebody so low-class. When I was around 10 I started making websites, from then and on, I made a bunch of money, studied computer science, worked in a few jobs and moved to Germany with 26. I've worked very hard to get here.
Nowadays I don't care so much about it, because while I succeeded, I saw how much people are left behind as most of it is about luck. There's a lot of people which had more effort than me but got less, just because they went in a not so good direction, for instance, humanities. And those people also deserve something. Everyone deserves a good life and I think it's better to try to defend those who are in need, rather than keep scaling things up forever, until I'm in the top of the world and thinking that I'm the best, when all I did was to neglect everyone.
Nowadays, even though I'm not a dad, I think it's more important being a great dad and partner(unlike Elon Musk) than being himself and being the CEO of multiple companies.
If people looked around before trying to move up, life wouldn't be hard for so many.
