Veritasium had a video about success vs luck and survivor bias. There's a bit of that here too.
That said, I'd love to have a graph or model (or book even) to describe the tipping point at which things become increasingly better and easier.
I observed that in the crypto bubble. Once you lifted off (fortune by accident maybe) you can comfortably ride the game from the back seat and pick what kind of new wealth you're gonna pick up this month.

So much easier to hussle if you have a clear goal in mind.
The threshold to « wealth » should be clearer. FIRE « levels » seems a good approximation but more detailed studies would be great.
Honestly I wasn't even trying to make it easier to get rich but so that everybody can understand how easy some have it and how hard other may have it.
It's difficult to understand unless you lived in it, and I only had a small taste of the bad. Urgency forces you to lower places where you get less and less acceptable conditions and you don't even have time to think about getting rich.
