    My high-school economics professor was such a smart dude.

    The most important part of his entire class was driving home the truth that no matter how hard you work, your success will always be determined mostly by luck.

    And how economies aren’t something to “win” but a tool for society to give people what they need/want in exchange for contributing to society.
