Luck? Seriously? You know what the difference is between a 250 hitter and a 300 hitter? One more hit out of fifteen. That's 1 more hit in 15 attempts. You know what the difference in salary is between a 250 hitter and a 300 hitter? Millions!!! Private jets vs. coach-class!!! You don't have to be that much smarter/luckier than the average numb nut... I know, I have the spread sheets to prove it. I'm WRONG in the market 3 out of 4 times... yet at the end of the year (for the most part) I've beat the market averages. Luck? Skill? A little of both I guess. It doesn't take much of either.
