Yes it is both.

This video is also good in explaining how survivor bias makes those in power (politicians, chads, etc) think that all it takes is working hard when in reality they have been lucky, as well as validated.

For most people hard work-> luck, but you need both to end up where you want to stand.

Superior Genetic is success

It compounds as well. Just being born better looking and taller will give you a happier childhood, more attention, less harsh punishments, leadership, etc

and on the other hand, being born ugly is the worst punishment and the absolute worst thing that can ever happen in this world to a being.

It's luck, because hard work isn't hard to do when you are being rewarded for it and reaching goals. It actually becomes fun and energizing to see that your effort brings value and rewards.

If you are a subhuman unlucky unprivileged person, you can work your ass off and get zero.
