I am close to some very well-off families and their kids didn't really become good at anything.
Terrifying. I'm not sure what's worse: being a cog in a machine you hate or a cog that's never been put to real use.
In a similar vein, I've seen people plateau as adults once they hit an income/wealth level. There are rare exceptions of course, but it seems to require replacing the hunger for survival with a hunger for something else (afaict achievement in the admirable cases).
Yeah. There are so many things that can be improved in the world. I'm sure that "hunger" has to do with having had some kind experience of hardship or discomfort as a child.
