It's very difficult we're living in an inheritocracy and I'd urge anyone to read @ElizaFilby book. Now more than ever it's not your degree or job that defines your success it's your access to familial help be it time or financial. If you make it without those things it's luck tbh
This was an interesting part of the debate - do we have agency? Is it possible to improve your life if you weren’t born rich?

Any DEI framework that’s focused on ethnicity but silent on the messy realities of social mobility risks letting down the very people it’s trying to champion

Family wealth dictates our life choices. So is the Bank of Mum and Dad now behind so many of society’s growing inequalities?
