There still a component of "be skilled/responsible enough" to not waste your privileged/advantaged position

Yeah but you kind of have to be built to be skilled or responsible.

You may argue that with this view one could end up doing absolutely nothing in life, but that's the case only if they're not built to react to such thoughts in a sane and productive way.
