Pemex Fuel Pricing Caught Red Handed

Every Mexican has the opportunity to become whatever they want in life. In some cases it is more difficult than for others.

Maybe I am wrong but in my experience that is simply not true anywhere in the world - not Mexico - not the US. Some get lucky and others do not. Old saying - right place right time. Many dream and work hard all their lives doing everything right and still get nowhere. That is a fact I have seen over and over again wherever we go. There are certainly opportunities but not everyone can be in the right place or right time to take advantage of them. And not everyone has equal education opportunities. Opportunities vary wherever you go - in every town almost there are good schools and not so good schools. I do certainly know that it is not always education that provides success as their are any number of highly successful people who did not even finish high school - Richard Branson - Larry Ellison - Colin Firth - and people like Bill Gates dropped out of college early and never got a degree. While others with many degrees and high level of education still struggle. So I know it is not just education. It is many things. One of the most important seems to be luck. And there is greed and selfishness and taking advantage of others and all that stuff that provides a certain success to some people like Donald Trump - though I doubt I would trade my life for his to look back and think I could be that kind of person - sad excuse for a human being. To say it is more difficult for some than for others is the supreme understatement. Difficult does not begin to describe it. Here's the thing - let's do the pie example - there are so many pies and so many slices of pie - there is not enough pie to go around - not everyone gets a slice of the pie - simply not possible - can't be done - mathematically impossible. There are only so many CEO positions and so many taxi driver positions and so many airline pilot positions and so many truck drive positions and so on. It is ridiculous to think anyone can become anything they want. The same as being rich or being poor or being middle class - only so many opportunities. You can't create something from nothing. That is the reality of life as I have seen and experienced it. To say anyone can be anything is just not even remotely realistic.
