I agree, I think it's because life exp of any kind greatly helps for confidence and leadership in running a company as well.

But I still think there's no better way to learn the game than to just go out there and do it... make mistakes, learn/improve, and keep iterating. No one becomes a great entrepreneur overnight; and certainly a lot of those guys I mentioned (Mark Cuban especially) went through a lot of failure before making their first big hit.
