i dont know man. Summit put in a lot of work. Winning the lottery is just luck. 100% luck.

But seeing a growing industry (twitch/streaming) and putting in 5-10 hours of work 7days a week until you make it is quite a difference to being lucky with the lottery. There were/are a lot of streamers like him who try just as hard. But they are boring. Their voices are not that nice. They are not as funny. They don't come off as genuine. And then they fade(d) away.

It sounds a bit like you critizice the twitch format (most viewers = first page).

But please keep in mind that summ1t used to stream for an amount of viewers a second page stream gets nowadays.

The lucky part is imo that he is quite good at something that became really popular (survival games/counter strike). But every business needs some luck to take off.
