I just wouldn't think of Sartre that way, he didn't grow up wealthy, he was beyond ugly (Camus' biggest advantage over him) he just did what came best, philosophy. He was forced into French Nazi Camps to work with weather analysys systems during WW2. He taught and contributed to society in his own way. Yes, it would be an "easy" life to sit around in cafe's and write but his writing revolutionized an entire field of philosophy.
