I feel like saying they got "lucky" after trying and failing in multiple other endeavors requires a special definition of luck. If someone rolls a 6 sided die six times and they roll a six once did they get lucky?
- hsbauauvhabzb 3y agoBeing good also has the facade of luck, every venture is a gamble none of which are guaranteed, but putting yourself in the most optimal positions (including diversifying) will result in some successes and some failures. You don’t end up with a $1t valuation based purely on luck.

- Rapzid 3y agoWell, you could roll the dice 1000 times and not get a 6.
