No he benefited from a trust fund, you could argue his Dad made his money, but then you have admit the Kennedy's weren't worth a shit either.
Here I found this on the internet that might make you feel better...
Romney's VP pick Paul Ryan and his wife have accumulated millions of dollars in assets and generated income last year that is MORE than his congressional salary, according to his most recent financial disclosure statement. How did he do it? Almost all is INHERITANCE. Ryan's work career outside government or politics is very, very short, lasting less than a few months. In fact, driving the Weinermobile may be his most significant NON-GOVERNMENT work experience.
A "Weinermobile" well I say that would make him more qualified than those Prohibition Liquor money Trust fund Kennedy's experience before they started in Government.

When President Obama said that we succeed in America “because of our individual initiative but also because we do things together,” he was actually speaking in more general terms — about manufacturing companies that ship their goods on our railways and highways and thus indirectly benefit from that public infrastructure. With a net worth of up to $3.2 million and ranking as the 124th richest member of Congress, Paul Ryan very directly and very significantly benefited from the federal spending he now rails against.
