In response to William Griffiths: Academia is not enough. Students should do some dirty work, Mark O’Connoway wrote:

Very good and inspirational article here, I couldn’t agree more. What I really do like about this article is that it clearly proves that young people do not need to come from a relatively rich background. It proves that anyone who has the ambition to work for the future they want has very big chances of achieving their goals and that there are a vast amount of opportunities for being successful for anybody who is determined to work for it. Very inspirational.
