It will depend. If your goal is to achieve a senior position in the company and earn a high salary. You just need the skills.
However, if you are in business and want to succeed. I do not believe that skill alone are enough to succeed. Business is completely different from being an employee, and in business, capital is the key factor. Because in business, money can buy time, and time gives you the opportunity to correct mistakes, adjust strategie and survive long enough until you get it right.
Today, many businesses fail not because of bad idea or poor leadership but simply because they do not have enough capital.
With time giving us the opportunity to correct our mistakes, I agree with that, and if for business, capital is an important factor too.
It all depends on the situation maybe, because we have our own perceptions. With the business itself, there are many important factors that must be considered, including capital and skills.
This is the usefulness of discussing, we can find different views, and it can be used as knowledge and also as a consideration perhaps.
