It's almost as if people with lots of money are more likely to have FYGM attitudes than people who don't. Smaller scale construction might be a little different, there are a lot of self-made millionaires (especially in concrete) who legitimately busted their asses for decades to succeed who are a little more grounded because they know much of their success was because of a combination of luck, developing the right connections and the hard work of others. Many successful careers rely on the "do well in school -> go to good college -> get a degree in the right subject -> get high paying job" model, and people in those careers often fault others for not working hard enough in school as the reason for their lower economic status, whereas there isn't a collegiate pipeline for success in most fields of construction.
