I think the best problem solvers are poor people who have had to survive and navigate and become successful. They have had to strategize.
There's a lot of truth to this. Necessity is the mother of invention, after all. My best ideas have come after I've had my butt handed to me by life.
Anyone privileged is the worst problem solver in my opinion. No need to really figure out how to overcome obstacles. I think that is why they now have those college essay questions. What is the biggest obstacle you have had to overcome. So they can weed out the entitled.
This gave me a good laugh, and I mean that in the best way possible. Thanks for that, Wren.
