I think success takes a lot of hard work and little luck. Great success takes a little more hard work and a lot more luck.

I think Bill Gates, Elon Musk are all examples of great success. It doesn't mean they are vastly different from the similar hard working people in their fields. It just means that they did a "little" more combined with lots of other factors that put them where they are.

I guess the point is that the working 16 hours a day for years on something that might return billions but might also return nothing, is a lot more rational if you have a safety net that means you'll still have somewhere to live if it doesn't work out.
