No certain outcome in the game of life or love, but advantages can be stacked in favour of those with the resources.

A wealthier person has the ability to draw upon his internal confidence - if he made it via his work, business or investment, he can use those same lessons to make it elsewhere - hence the saying success breeds success and money makes more money.

Personally I find it distasteful because it takes away the meritocratic element of fairness, but you only need to look at real life where the datuks and the tan sris strutting about with their trophy wives or girlfriends to know that, sadly, this is how the real world works.

I don’t like it, I don’t think it’s inherently fair and I still believe that hard work and character should account for something, but I fear that is just my wishful and wistful thinking.

What do you think?
