#His parents didn't kick him out because he didn't succeed on his first business venture

So glad that reddit had her back and helped her see the signs of a hobosexual. This is also a good example of how the myths that have grown up around certain rich men downplay if not erase their privileged beginnings. If your not born into money or connections success will likely entail lots of hard work, not spending time and money on Dungeons and Dragons.

Bill Gates was born rich and connected.

Bill Gates' father, William Henry Gates II, was a wealthy lawyer. He was the founder of the law firm Shidler McBroom & Gates (which later merged to become the firm K&L Gates).

Bill Gates' mother, Mary Ann Maxwell Gates, was a member of the Board of Directors for United Way in the 1980s. United Way is an international network of over 1,800 local nonprofit fundraising affiliates.

Bill Gates attended Lakeside School, a private school in Seattle. In an interview, he told his school friends that many students drove Porsches to school. Given that he attended this school, do you think Bill Gates was the son of a janitor?

Elon Musks parents may not have been wealthy when he was born but they were well connected.

The Musk family includes Maye Musk, a model and author; Errol Musk, a mine-owner, businessman and politician; ....... Maye's father Joshua N. Haldeman was a notable chiropractor, aviator, and politician who was a well known proponent of technocracy. 

And Donald Trump? He started by working for his dad who worked for the business his parents started

Frederick Christ Trump Sr. (October 11, 1905 – June 25, 1999) was an American real-estate developer and businessman. He was the father of the 45th and 47th U.S. president, Donald Trump.

Born in the Bronx in New York City to German immigrant parents, Trump began working in home construction and sales in the 1920s before heading the real-estate business started by his parents (later known as the Trump Organization).[a] His company rose to success, building and managing single-family houses in Queens, apartments for war workers on the East Coast during World War II, and more than 27,000 apartments in New York overall. Trump was investigated for profiteering by a U.S. Senate committee in 1954 and again by New York State in 1966. Donald Trump became the president of his father's real-estate business in 1971. Two years later, they were sued by the U.S. Justice Department's Civil Rights Division for racial discrimination against black people.

Contradicting Donald Trump's claim that he built a multibillion-dollar company using "a small loan of a million dollars" from his father, in 2018 The New York Times reported that Fred and his wife, Mary Trump, provided over $1 billion (in 2018 currency) to their children overall, avoiding over $500 million in gift taxes. In 1992, Fred and Donald set up a subsidiary which was used to funnel Fred's finances to his surviving children; shortly before his death, Fred transferred the ownership of most of his apartment buildings to his children, who several years later sold them for over 16 times their previously declared worth.
