yes, business success is demonstrably not causally linked to intelligence or competence. you just need to receive a million dollars or two from your parents and after that you can just fail upwards for life.

it helps if you have no morals or concern for other people but that's usually instilled in you by the kind of parent who gives or leaves you that kind of money. CEOs don't do anything meaningful to society or even the economy. it's the workers who do the job.

buying a company, stealing labor and taking credit for the output does not make you smart or competent. it just means you're rich.

not to mention his "success" is based on hype and speculation almost entirely, and that's hype and speculation by people who are equally stupid and useless.
