This is the most ridiculously untrue comment, and it's not only untrue its the worst possible attitude for the individual to have.

You prevent yourself from attempting anything to change your circumstances, while rolling around in self pity and building resentment towards successful people.

Too much of this destroys societies, and having it personally yourself destroys your life.

I appreciate that you think it's ridiculously untrue. This means that you're either already rich (and therefore lucky), or you think you might be rich soon definitely (but aren't right now). In both cases, your line of thinking isn't compelling. In the former, it's because you suffer from survivorship bias and in the latter it's because you're clearly not an example of what you're trying to say.

So, what happens to people who actually had nothing and got to being rich? That scenario doesn’t exist in your head?

Luck is very subjective.

Having opportunities around is lucky, but most people aren't interested in taking the risks or making sacrifices necessary to seize those opportunities.

And often times the ones willing to do this are then later called lucky.

Those risks are risks because they very often don't pan out. The folks that "make it" get to deliver clever speeches about how self-made they are and what a nice pair of bootstraps they used to get where they are today. What's left out of those stories is how many folks tried the same thing and failed. If all it took was the audacity to take a step others are not taking then it wouldn't be a risk in the first place, just a job.

Put differently: To gamble you also need to take risks and make sacrifices. Some people will make it and by necessity those people are the ones that are willing to do that. That takes absolutely nothing away from the fact that the success is due to luck.

Luck is still subjective.

A good investor does not feel like he is gambling. He just knows industries well enough to make educated guesses that are likely to happen.

Someone else could put up the same amount of money because he overheard a tip in a bathroom. In my opinion, that person is gambling.

But really its all the same and it's all subjective.

The gambler was lucky, the investor was smart, who cares they both won.

The investor is more likely to win again though I wouldn't necessarily call him luckier.

You're essentially not engaging with my comment at all, just repeating what you said before. I don't find that a compelling way to have a conversation.

I'll be more direct since you can't seem to infer into things yourself.

"To gamble you also need to take risks and make sacrifices."

This statement reads as if you look at all risks as gambling. I disagree with you. With good information and intelligence, things may not be a sure thing, but you can make your own odds very good. You are basically doing work to "increase your luck."

I don't think that makes you luckier I think that means you earned it.

I have explained this concept as well as I can, I'm sorry if you still don't get it and have a fixed mindset.
