The more important question is: how do you get there? How many rich people are either lucky, rich through inheritance, or rich through intelligence that you cannot teach? Some people say that hard work is a myth and that it's smart work that counts, then there's the old cliche about the cream always rising to the top.
There must be loads of people working their arses off under the delusion that they can go places if they put the hours in, when in reality your organisation has long since marked you out either as someone with potential or without it.
