Knew a fellow who came from genuine poverty (one of 8 kids!) and became a millionaire+ without family help. His major score sprang from serving in the Army and getting connections that let him become a major force in the military surplus market. He worked hard and was rightly proud of his success but even he admitted that it wouldn't have happened without Uncle Sugar's need to throw away valuable things throughout the 1950s.
