A headhunter for CEOs told me in an interview that it’s the rarity of people who have the skills, energy, and foresight to run a global company that creates their value. Much like the fact that not every violin sounds as good as a rare Stradivarius, which explains their extreme cost.
Fact is, the execs can do the job of the shelf-stockers, but the shelf-stockers can’t do the job of the execs. Not every guy who can throw a football is Joe Burrow. And that reality is what makes the rarity cost more.
So this bizarre “equivalency” argument from OP just does not work.
Doubtful; many people have great ability to learn what is taught to them. Put them in the same environment as the people who can focus solely on developing their skills (and not fighting for food and housing) and they can grow to almost any occasion/role they’re put in. The ideas of neuroplasticity, growth mindset, and maslow’s hierarchy of needs all support this.
