The revolution in France and then the Great War after Pax Brittanica destroyed and exhausted most monarchies in Europe and the WWII eradicated the principle on which the Empires were build upon - the myth of supremacy of white man. Yes its true and quite obvious that social stratification still exists in our days but it became less dependent on the things a person can't change (it should be noted though that the noble titles in the middle ages could have been bought). A person nowadays has a significant chance to get out of a lumpen status and become an elite in his lifetime if he has wits and will to do that. Of course concurrent system is far from perfect. Cronyism and hereditary wealth are the things that hinder the development of the western world.

Про возможности,что закрываются с возрастом,правда твоя,и она изрядно горька,да. Можно утешиться тем, что появляются новые,подчас не хуже того,о чем мог помыслить раньше)
А самое,имхо,ценное - опыт.
