What type of strategy? Getting lots of financial backing and becoming wealthy?
If everyone was successful in such endeavors we wouldn’t make such a big deal of rags-to-riches winners. Such successes are the exception, not the rule, which is why we highlight the exceptions.
I'm not talking about financial backing, or being wealthy. I'm talking about taking jobs or projects they didn't really know how to do and figuring it out along the way, eventually becoming upper-middle class when they started out in poverty.
