that our hard work will eventually pay off.But a government survey has shown that hard work is not the only thing that willhelp you to move up the ladder.Two thirds of people believe that who you know mattersmore than what you know when it comes to social activity.So are the connectionsthat you have more important than your education?76%of the people in the survey believed that family background is
