Do you know Gladstone Gander in Donald Duck cartoons? That character is the luckiest person in the duck universe. But being lucky doesn't mean that person is intelligent. Every man or woman, in the world can win ten million from the lottery. And that makes them rich, and beautiful. But at the same time, those people are lucky. Lucky people can win lots of money, but they are not intelligent. Being lucky means that a person simply picks the right lot from the kiosk.
Of course, some mathematically talented people can calculate the possibility that opponent players have better cards than they have. But those people cannot always win in poker or the lottery.
Many people believe in the theory that rich people are intelligent and geniuses. Sometimes we think that the thing behind that myth is that we want to be polite. Many times rich people have big ownership. And they have a superior role in the working life. And that's why we want to be polite to those people.
I think nobody wants to argue with people who have a good relationship in working life. If a person knows many headhunters or company leaders. The fight with those people can have a negative influence on careers.
When we think about the way how people earn their money, we can call a person who wins 10 million euros from the lottery a millionaire. But is that person a genius, or is that person just lucky? In the same way, we can ask ourselves about people who make many successful businesses is that person a good businessman? What does a good businessman mean? Is a good businessman person who is good at making trade? Or is that person the only person, who has the right relationships?
That means our business genius knows lots of people. Who buy certain types of services or products. So a person has the right social network that makes any person in the world a good businessman. But does a good social network mean that a person is intelligent? No, it means, that some buyers say that person is funny or good company.
