Seriously. Have you ever earned a single dollar that wasn't given to you in exchange for time/labor? Do you know what you're talking about? And to be polite and answer your question...no obviously not. Not all wealthy people are geniuses. But in the big picture, generally speaking, people who risk capital make more money than those who don't. Generally speaking it's more difficult to earn money in that way and thus the reward is greater.
