Brumar, I think this quote by Obama deserves to be called out:
That’s a pet peeve of mine — people who have been successful and don’t realize they’ve been lucky.
What a dumb thing to say. Of course success is the result of hard work AND good fortune, but without the former, you're never going to profit from the latter. Whether successful people realize that or not isn't any of Obama's business.

There can only be one reason why this bothers him so much, and it's because he doesn't value the role of hard work.
