A direct correlation between the two?
Well we are told that "everybody lies". So why is "everybody" not enormously successful? Because you gotta lie convincingly. Ya gotta have that je ne sais quoi that hooks the brainless gullibles into believing you no matter how absurd and crackpot a wackadoodle you are. Not everyone is similarly gifted.
Okay. Now that you know go out and multiply. Go out and succeed. Go west young man. Focus on plastics. That's where the real money will be. Etcetera etcetera etcetera and so forth. "Oh Mrs. Robinson are you trying to seduce me?"
