You know that the business world has lucky people too, right? Or people good at people and self promoting and bad at thinking. Or people in the right place at the right time. In fact, it's full of them.
As an aside you really really have an issue with idolizing people, and particularly people who put on a show. You're gonna get taken for everything you're worth if you keep that.
Classic. You see a recreational player make an incorrect fold and extrapolate that he's stupid. He crushes you at life ainec. You're deluded.
Saw your edit, yes, I know luck exists in life. I also know how he thinks about early stage investing and it's quite methodical. It's different to public markets though.

I don't idolize Jason C., all I said was you're underestimating him based on a trivially small amount of info, and I know more about him, and you're wrong. Given a binary choice between crushing early stage tech investment, or playing GTO poker, I'd take the former ainec. Not only are the stakes and potential returns much higher, it has the potential to positively impact the world, and it's asynchronous.
