Coding is an accessible path to wealth which conceivably could support more. Nursing receives that in pulses and there are tons of organizations and outright unions for them. Nursing has boom and bust cycle

Those which fail at scalability and wealth would fall flat before it gets off the drawing board. An initiative to promte being a X would be utterly panned for these for instance.

Heh, touché, I probably should have specified CEO of major corporation. Since technically anyone with sufficent money and expertise could become CEO of a useless shell company that does nothing and lacks even a vague plan to develop a business model. (In the US at least.)
