Is becoming
reach (rich ?
) really depends from country you are in or from?
Sometimes the country where you from can determine because policies are maintained, corruption is reduced and access to opportunity is equal then if you struggle with your creativity and intelligence, you can make it.
You can exchange some dollars in Africa and get a cart of cash. A person would definitely looks rich with that pile of cash.
You may be surprised that inflation can make nonsense of it at the end
while living in Africa (google say they are the poorest, to blame them), sell the innovation and become rich.
Africa is not the poorest but may have corrupt leadership that is not able to utilize the numerous natural resources.
Country does not play a huge role, being creative and lucky is the most important factor.
I think it does, that country can help you live a good life if you are not rich.
