I am not sure if it's a survival bias blog post, but the blogger is a businessman. No matter how much luck is involved, it still takes certain type of skills and character to do it well.

I was an 'aspiring' businessman, but I never was able to execute the hustles and do all the things that a businessman do to make a living at it. I never learned how to do that nor do I possess mental fortitude to do such things. I hardly can deal with stress or perform my adult responsibilities well enough. What makes me think I could take on such a challenge as this?

Luck can't pay much if any role if you don't have any business skills.

I still love the idea of being a businessman, though.
