OK, so we've gone from

> Luck is invented to be an excuse for the feeble minded.

> There is no luck involved in getting rich. If you want to get rich you have to 1) work hard 2) be smart 3) be unscrupulous.

...to drawing a fatuous semantic distinction between luck and good fortune, on the basis that luck is pseudo-random, and good fortune is not ... when the whole point that you're ducking is precisely that the advantages of the economic elite are not random at all, but pretty easy to define and empirically measure.

Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to defend a position that is nutso bonkers.

EDIT: fixed the paraphrase
