You can be the smartest guy in college but not be able to get along with people. The better that you can get along with people, the better your chance of being president of the United States. Being in business yourself takes a lot of guts and it is a gamble. Then there is the luck factor. At first Donald Trump was a failure when he bought Trump Towers.

He was going bankrupt and went to his investors and told them that since everything is going down the drain, he needs more money to save it and they gave him more money. In college they do not grade you on passion, but Trump had passion for what he was doing. Bill Gates likes computers more than money. The owners of Google love the internet with a passion.
