So it’s a draw in the end?

You can lose mone, you can't lose a skill, plus the self made man has the potential to make more money. Unless the lottery winner spends all of his money on more lottery tickets he's doesn't have the same chance as the self made man.
Self made man is now my favorite phrase btw
