Corrected

Luck maybe 50%…30% for hard work…20% for intelligence. You know when I first hire someone, who recently graduated form university…my first “ask” of him — is not to be smart, its to work hard and understand my words clearly. This is my first requirement of him. The second is perhaps he should be able to think independently. If someone wants to be successful, I think before age 40, it depends mostly on luck or chance. After 40, if someone wants to be successful, it depends mostly on his body.

But they are very rich…they dont have muc educational experience…they don’t have a bachelor’s degree…they are not like us. I have a bachelor’s degree. They just graduated from a 3 year university. We came into the same industry. But why did they become richer…and achieve omre than me…I think it’s just luck.

…create media strategy for clients.

they all doing this / they all did this
