Apparently I did miss the memo. All successful people are a result of luck and leaching. TIL.

Actually that is, in my opinion, a perverted world view. Surely you don't believe it.

I think the parent is trying to say that successful people all have luck, while not all hard working people are successful.

I feel this is a correct, one way relation, as being born in the right country is luck in itself.

Sure, this is something that I can support. The parent post seemed too simplistic a characterization.

That (my post above) was sarcasm, for anybody who missed it.
