How EVERYONE has unique opportunities?

What was the unique opportunity of that kid some streets down here that got gunned down when he was 10 years old?

What was the unique opportunity of the record amount of slaves worldwide? (by the way, did you knew the world has more "traditional" slaves now than any other time in history?)

Or... what is my unique opportunity? Being in debt? Not having a single important connection? Going to shitty university? Yes, I am intelligent, I make games, but I see lots of people with less skill than me earning millions, just because they were friends of someone somewhere or their dad was the minister of something in the government. Ultimate example: Eike Batista, that CLEARLY is incompetent, since none of the business he started on his own had profits, yet his father that was the mining minister obviously had a hand in Eike 90% accuracy in finding minerals in areas previously surveyed by the goverment during his father tenure while this information is "secret" and private companies should not know, and the government recently happily handed him billions and kicked out thousands of people from their homes so he could make his lastest failure project.
