You would feel pretty stupid turning him down right? It's a reasonable bet that whatever he did next would also be successful. At the very least you'd be scared to bet strongly against him.
There are many people who, while not being so famous, have accomplishments and abilities of some kind which could inspire a similar feeling.
That's who.
