You are not aware of this certain concept called 'Social Capital', if you have disproportionately high successful people in your community, you are likely to succeed due to sheer community inertia.

You also get to enjoy a lot of otherwise impossible social biases in your favor. People tend to perceive your success to come naturally and hence set you up for it.

Other benefits include access to a network of successful people all over the economic ecosystem. That in itself is a huge boost to anything you would do.
