Sat and gave new privileges for some people (10)
I believe the answer is:
advantages
'privileges for some people' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'sat and gave new' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'sat'+'and'+'gave'='satandgave'
'satandgave' with letters rearranged gives 'ADVANTAGES'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for advantages that I've seen before include "Gave a stand (anag.)" , "profits" , "Benefits" .)
