context is everything… I compare generalist vs. “specialize in something” similar to using diversification while investing (index funds) vs. stacking your chips into few things. no WEALTHY person is all that diversified (e.g. warren buffet) but of you course there are plenty RICH people who are. specialization is high risk, high reward (e.g. have a dear friend making insane money as cobol coder for decades now who couldn’t write a hello world program in any other language) while generalist is safer route but won’t get you wealthy, just rich (which isn’t too bad :) )
