1) Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, benefited from luck in the company’s first product, the MS-DOS operating system. He knew that Seattle Computer had developed a PC operating system. Through his mother’s business contacts, he knew that IBM was looking to acquire such a system. His father, a prominent Seattle attorney, was able to loan Gates the $50,000 to acquire the system from Seattle Computer, which was then licensed to IBM for a tremendous profit. There were several elements of luck in this beginning, but Microsoft’s continued high performance has been mainly due to Gates’ astute use of that initial profit to acquire resources and capabilities that would lead to enduring success.

 Do you think that luck is useful but transitory? Does all of you have the same opportunity?
