As far as luck goes, I do consider myself lucky that something I enjoy and have passion for happens to be in demand and lucrative. If programming wasn't worth the money it is, I'd either be making less money or doing something else that I maybe don't have the same aptitude for. So to that extent, lucky that the market values us so much for something many of us were innately drawn to anyways.
