If you want to be anecdotal, it works the other way too.

I used to walk my ass down Hwy 10 to the A&W at 152 and 56 Ave like once a week for coupon lunch when I worked near there... I got to know the owner who was a younger east indian fellow... his sister, who owned franchises of her own that her parents got her seed money to start the first one, literally GAVE him the restaurant to run as a "show me" because he was constantly getting into trouble and didn't want to go to university, so she told him to do this and if he did a good job she'd gift it to him.

So, uhm, not really had work in that case... just a rich family and a very generous and patient sister.
