I read this article 10 years ago by a guy named Ricky Yean who went to Stanford as an economically disadvantaged admit and couldn’t shake his poverty mindset and it cost him when he was running a startup.

Why “few successful startup founders grew up desperately poor”

Poverty mindset is maladaptive because it teaches you only money is worth anything, so you hoard it. But in truth time is also worth a lot and sometimes it’s wise to use money to buy time.

A deep and thoughtful piece, thanks for sharing.

I'm wondering at this point what are known methods of overcoming "mindset inequality". Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks for the article, I really enjoyed it!
