This strikes me as completely the wrong way to make decisions. If you're taking it as a given that you're a top performer in a common field, then yeah. You might as well assume you're a billionaire and argue how many doors that opens for you. But you're not a top performer in a common field until you've committed years of effort to not being a top performer in that field. And you can hardly argue that the world is a worse place because someone wanted to be the world's best yodeler instead of the best truck driver.
