I'd bet this describes most people on news.YC - after all, being a relatively new, non-mainstream site that focuses on written articles delivered electronically, it'll attract folks with half the qualities in this article right off the bat. I'm more curious how many people have all these qualities, start a company, and then fail. That'll give me a better idea of what my true odds are. It's possible that there are lots of people with these 10 qualities, yet there are only a few people who cash out with multi-million-$ payouts. |

I think this is a poor metric. Individual projects fail all the time for no reason. What's more telling is the chance that you'll succeed big somewhere at some point. Part of being smart is trying lots of random stuff and failing or getting bored and doing something else.
