that's not true. people also say they were just lucky or their parents were well off. the jealousy is the same, though.
but you also see the attitude that if you're in debt and not doing well, it's because you're bad with money, live outside your means and just pissed everything away.
you then get comments like "just get a better job" or the classic "work harder"
