Am I on Crack or is this Bullshit?

So I got sent this link by a friend like he has seen the light:

http://www.forbes.com/sites/joelshulman/2012/04/2…

To me this article is a nonsense.The concept that the very rich are successful inventors and, by virtue of that, have stock portfolio's which have outperformed the market is no revelation. The 'would be billionaires' who's stockes tanked are not accounted for, cos theyre no longer rich.

Am I crazy?
