This is ironically a poor sales pitch, unless you believe that networking, marketing, and familial wealth should be what orders society.

And I never said that 250k was all they had, and in fact being able to throw that much money at something is going to be less and less of a concern the more money you have, though I don’t think his family was “poor as hell” to start with. Unfortunately for this point, their finances at the time are not publicized that I can find.
