This reminds me of the findings of that study which said that tall people were more successful. That's partly because height correlates with intelligence (largely because of nutrition; it's not causal), and partly because, the researchers theorized, taller people had a physical advantage over their peers and didn't get bullied as much. Add to that the tendency for victims to remain victims forever, and you have yourself some strange data. Am I saying that college athletes make more money because they get more respect? Kind of; it's late and I'm tired. What I really mean to say is that there are a lot of confounding factors.
