Winning the ovarian lottery
If you are born into a “good” family, navigating adulthood is much easier. You can copy what your parents did and benefit from their connections. For kids who come up rough, even if they are bright – are going to face uphill challenges
It is much tougher to figure out how to live, earn, love, parent, etc. People who manage to do so break the cycle and chart their future family history on a different course.
Winning the “ovarian lottery” is a term coined by Warren Buffett. Where he attributed much of his success to luck – by being conceived in the right place and the right time.
While luck plays a significant role in determining the probability of your success, there are actions we can take to put ourselves in a better position to chart our future.
Here are some of my experiences at doing so. While not perfect, I hope it is useful for you to build on my experience and chart your own future.
