„That one day I was sharpening the pencils in my garage and got this revolutionary idea and launched pencil-sharpening startup which is now earning billions”. NOT. Rich and influential parents, lots of money available to burn, location, availability of cheap workforce - otherwise you end up unemployable and with debt (and, for fucks sake, don’t drop out of the university).
