I am by no means privileged. I reckon I fit within johnt189's description.
I have managed to improve my life quite a bit compared to a couple of my siblings.
I work every day, live within my means, and managed to get an education that was directly responsible for my gaining the employment I did.
One of the aforementioned siblings used to "kid" me about having such a good time partying while I went to classes.
I have friends whose parents were in position to provide very well for them, and some have continued to work hard, but there were also friends that did not do so well with the start in life they were given, and a couple have crashed hard.
I do not feel privileged at all.
More like rewarded for my hard work. I see some that have worked harder or smarter and have done better, and do not begrudge them. They earned it.
