He wasn't, Charles was born and raised in Britain, but later in his career he visited the US for his journalist work.
Then possibly I would know a bit more than him about being raised in the U.S. and being told such things by parents? Especially within the lifetime of everyone on the planet currently?
Having also been born and raised in the United States and having met a variety of people from various walks of life, I am of the opinion that he hit the nail square on the head. I've met kind selfless people, sure, but that is the exception to the rule most often.
There is a vast gulf between being a kind and selfless person and thinking you could be rich someday if you worship the right plutocrat.
