The main things I gained from a private education are:
- A whole lot of bullying
- A life long love of sport
- Learning to be confident and take risks in situations where in reality I'm out of my depth. You could call it professional arrogance or confident risk taking, either way, its something that private school taught me....how to blag.

Learning to be confident and take risks

Could that simply be because wealth (that of parents or peers) allowed it?

It's a lot harder to take risks when you're working a couple of shitty jobs and if you lose one, your kids go hungry.
