@bolded: what you're forgetting is that while DNA and birthplace are truly random and are absolutely dependent on fortune/chance, we still live live in a closed system where all the best actors are expected to move to Hollywood to make the most money, all the best programmers are expected to move to Silicon Valley to make the most money, and all the best athletes can make the most money in the U.S. as well.  The U.S. is a talent vacuum.

People are born with vocal cords that dictate singing ability and then move to where they can make the most money off of it.  Britney Spears is richer than me.  Does that mean she was a smarter businessperson than me, or that she was lucky enough to be born with nice tits, and vocal cords that are good enouogh?

TLDR;

Did John Holmes get rich for spending years in education crafting his acting talents, or was he born with it?

 

LMFAO.  Well played.  For those who don't know some of John Holmes finer films, do a quick google search.
