Luck

It's not uncommon for me to stumble across /educated/ and relatively well off people.

They generally own a slightly understated sense of arrogance and taste, they believe they are knowledgeable and enlightened.

What do these types have to show for their moral hubris?

-- Good dress sense? A pretty wife/husband? The ability to provide good schooling for their kids? The latest MacBook? A connoiseur's taste for coffee? A nice car? A sophisticated job title?

These people aren't better in any way than poor servants, labourers, prostitutes - the desperates of society. They are just wealthier, luckier.
