Yes, because the most critical element of most successes which are almost never mentioned in success stories is the social connectedness of the founders to wealthy individuals. This is 99.9% of what success is. You can have a terrible idea, terrible execution but if you're friends with the CEO of a big tech corporation, you are still likely to get a ton of funding and a multi-million dollar exit. This is made obvious based on how often they shut down the projects after acquisition; they never cared about the tech... It's pure cronyism.
