Nobody has control over where, when or in what circumstance they’re born. They can, however, recognise when those factors afford them a certain amount of privilege.

Telegraph columnist Sophia Money-Coutts missed the memo, and penned a piece berating the younger generation for their alleged unwillingness to knuckle down to hard graft.

Unfortunately for Ms. Money-Coutts, her background was well-known enough to pour a generous helping of scepticism over her claims of having to hustle. These metaphorical howls of laughter perfectly demonstrate the general sentiment.
