Generally speaking, I think this meme is pretty retarded. I mean, being born in this country is damn privileged compared to most of the rest of the world...but if we're talking only Americans, some of these just don't go into enough detail(like you've seen). I mean, college degree w/o loans? Check, but I paid for it all myself. Stock portfolio? Check, but again, 100% saved/built up on my own.
Of course, I consider myself incredibly lucky to have been born with a pretty good brain, so...
