Read somewhere that it is standard for Russian motorists to have dash-mounted cameras to prove to insurance company that they weren't in the wrong. The above reckless driving proves my point.
Julius Caesar comes to mind.
He had the fortune of following the footsteps of Marius and Sulla, which enabled multiple consoleships and perpetual dictator status, got lucky in a couple of battles, crossed the Rubicon seeking glory and had the good fortune of having Octavian succeed him. After ruling for something like 30 years, Caesar Augustus legitimized "first citizen" status and upheld the deification of Julius.
Really, at any other time he would not even be remembered, but as it is, he is in the top 5 or so most important men of the "western world." For reference, see Pompey the great and Marcus Crassus, who are known to historians and otherwise forgotten.
Maybe former President Gerald Ford.
He got to become Vice President and the President of the USA without running for the positions. He became the first and to date only person to have served as both Vice President and President of the United States without being elected by the Electoral College. After serving less than 4 full years he got full presidential retirement benefits for life.

Good point. And it looks like Frank is having a lot more fun.

For you and all the other people picking ancient figures, each one of these guys is unluckier than pretty much every American who is alive today.
Think about it.
No modern dentistry.
No potable water.
No frequent flier miles, Fig Newtons, or NCAA hoops.
Each of these outweighs the benefits of being able to cross the Rubicon and set oneself up as a dictator.
ANY PORN STAR...GETTING PAID TO SCREW HOT BITCHES!!!!
Open up the category to luckiest people, not just men, and I nominate Madonna. No one has had as much success in the entertainment industry with such little talent as she has.
Brian O'Neal, the current head coach at Old Miss. He has gotten his jobs handed to him since he was first at old miss with joe walker. lucked out with florida job and did absolutely nothing there. then conned his way into the head job at odd miss where he shows no knowledge of the sport. and, as usual, takes credit for every good thing that happens.

That's pretty ridiculous. Specifically the plane incident and car off the mountain incident.

Neither one of whom is attractive. So what would be your point?

Split between Steven Tyler and Mick Jagger. Both are ugly as sin, but get laid quite often due to their popularity and fame.

They both have talent. Ron Jeremy on the other hand has none and has slept with thousands of beautiful women.
