Ok tell me how many singing lessons for a tone deaf guy to get a Grammy?

How many hours in the gym for a 5'2 Asian guy to become an NBA player?

Your argument is ludicrous.

I'm not talking about getting successful/famous doing something. Im talking about acquiring a skill.
Can a deaf guy learn to sing? Sure he can.
Can a small person lern to play basketball? Of course. (also why did he have to be asian?)
Is it going to be easy? No.
Can that person make a living out of that skill and/or become famous for it? Depends on many more factors than just being good at something.

Well I'm talking about becoming successful and making a career out of something, if you cared to read the op. I already said, if you like to do something, by all means, make it a hobby. Go ahead. But don't be delusional thinking you can make it professionally. It's ludicrous.
