Can you expand that argument to work life - as in creative people may be better at dealing with situations such as startups where a constrained environment is often time and money. Are there trends that successful founders often had prior creative outlets in their childhood more often than not?

The general trend that I've seen is that founders in general (successful and not) is that they have a propensity for risk thats out of line with the general population - frequently (in my anecdotal experience) stemming from a strong sense of security and exposure to possibilities from a wealthy upbringing.
