I don't doubt the accuracy. I'm just not sure that it proves what they say it does. One needs to compares apples to apples.

That said, I don't doubt for a minute that being born into a wealthy family gives one some tremendous advantages. But that's the problem. The conclusion seems self-evident, so rigorous controls are considered unnecessary.
