ometime ago, I posted about luck. Are You Smart? Or Just Plain Lucky? I chanced upon this YouTube clip which I felt was really worth the watch. I highly recommend going through it. He made a computer simulation whereby luck is only a 5% factor of a potential candidate. And yet, with just a potential up to 5% bonus in "stats", the result was significant over a large population. Within a large population, there are a lot of hardworking and smart people. The "stats" that each one is born with... well it's pretty average over a large population. I ran a similar experiment. For a population of 18,000, I ran some random numbers. For the skill stat, I ran random numbers between 0 to 95. For luck stat, I ran random numbers between 0 to 5. With a large population size, there will be many people with high skill stats. So the only differentiating factor is how much more luck that person is....
