Between B C and E
C- Business leaders ar irrelevant. Successful leaders are the context
B- In inference questions future events cant be always true.
E is the winner
.... Side note. For the first time i have used syllogism in this sort of question.
A (succesful business leaders with deep resources) totally inside B (ppl who have trials or experience).
E matches.

Any successful business leader has deep personal resources. All people with deep personal resources have undergone trials in their lives. The experience of trials is more prevalent among those who were not born to great wealth and privilege.
Summary of argument :
Any Successful business leader (will have) deep personal resources
deep personal resources (will have) trials
Experience of trails > for not wealthy and privileged persons
(A) Those who currently lack deep personal resources can never become successful business leaders. (this is same as 1st statement)
(B) It is more likely for a person not born to wealth and privilege to become a successful business leader than for one who is born to wealth and privilege. (Experience of trials and undergone trials are two different concepts--> incorrect)
(C) The number of business leaders who were born to wealth is smaller than the number of business leaders who were not born to wealth. (Argument discuss about successful business leader)
(D) Those who are born to privilege are more likely to be successful than those who were born to wealth. (No where mentioned --> incorrect)
(E) An absence of trials in a person’s life indicates that that person cannot have deep personal resources. (This is same as 2nd statement)
I am stuck with options A and E.
Can someone throw some light on these?!
