Haha :D that's a great analogy to explain 'success peddling'. It reminds me of a conversation I had with someone who told me that all this 'eating healthy' is probably a myth. The reason for her hypothesis - she has a relative who drinks everyday and smokes a pack of cigarettes a day - and is still healthy at 85, compared to another one who did no such things and was always focused on health, but had a heart attack in their 50's. Well, I guess genetics is a bitch :D
