    Of course it isn’t. If you can’t afford to eat you can’t achieve any potential you might have. Financial stability is a gamechanger for everyone.

      That's stupid, if you're truly talented you'll solve the financial stuff in order to pursue whatever you want to do - if you don't then that's on you.

        The majority of the population doesn't even have access to a functioning computer. So yeah maybe somebody truly talented can figure their way out of that hole after a few years but that's where alot of people are starting from.

    To show the world you're a "world class talent", whatever that means, also suggests you would either have to be a genius or have enough resources to work on your side quests. Latter implies you're well off so, no, I don't think there's zero correlation between the two in all cases.

  Redis, hping and dump1090 were all side projects he started/written while having a full time job. Your comment really sounds like "many other people would do A and B if they just had time and money to do so", but he's been doing so since time and money were major constraints.
