Re: Study says being rich is determined by chance rather than intelligence or talent
I am not entirely surprised by this at all actually, anecdotally I have always felt people who achieved success where mainly in the right place right time. Whether that be born to a certain family or class, or to a certain country, or area of a country, these things all effect where we will end up. Good to know us average folk can still make it in this rigged world 
Luck plays a factor we have always known that but you still need the talent to take advantage of the opportunity life gives you, look at bitcoin, we know we can make money with it but if you lack the talent then you are not going to make much money with it, but with the right skill you can make a fortune, this is why even if lucks plays a factor we cannot say it is everything, there have been several studies that shows that those that have an higher IQ and more education have greater salaries and get better outcomes.
