You're right, though I'm sure the story has grown in the telling. The point is that there's lots of other people who do that and aren't billionaires. Its necessary but not sufficient. However I should have been better in giving him respect because he'd probably agree with me about luck.

I just react badly to anything that includes "Kevin Rose" in the same class with a billionaire.

I've known the story for 6 years; it hasn't changed at all. Cuban is much better known in the sports scene than in the tech scene.

When do you get to tell us what Rose did or am I just ignorant?

I tend to be cagey about it, because a. I still own some stock, b. I'm still subject to a legal agreement and c. I'm too busy to actually figure out in detail how b affects what I can and can't say.
