Quote:Granted, 48 percent of millionaires hold an advanced degree, and elite colleges do open doors to careers on Wall Street and in Silicon Valley (not to mention social connections that grease the wheels). But for every Ph.D. millionaire, there are many more who squeaked through school. Kiyosaki, for one, says the only way he survived college calculus was by “sitting near” the smart kids in class"“we cheated like crazy,” he says.
What does "But for" mean in this sentence?
Means a comparison:
As opposed to every PhD Milliionare, there is one who did not excel in school.
