That might be the case if levels of wealth weren't inherited. In most cases it seems that luck is the main factor at play, instead of mental fortitude or any kind of competence. If you are born into wealth, survival is easy. If you are born into poverty, working just as hard as the born-rich will be unlikely to get you anywhere near as far

There is a theoretical level of (dis)advantage that would deem (in)competence to be a very small factor in comparison. I believe this is the case for an extremely large number of people.
