A single factor for intelligence (g) can be measured with IQ tests and predicts success in life.

Meta-analysis confirms intelligence is a better predictor of success than socioeconomic status.

The landmark book "The Bell Curve" compared intelligence, education, socioeconomic status, and a variety of other factors to see how positively they correlate with social success. None of the factors correlated as highly as IQ did (positively or negatively) in regards to job success, income, welfare dependency, illegitimacy, and crime.

A public statement signed by 52 internationally known scholars, all professors or experts in intelligence and allied fields, endorsing “The Bell Curve” claiming that "IQ is strongly related, probably more so than any other single measurable human trait, to many important educational, occupational, economic, and social outcomes. Its relation to the welfare and performance of individuals is very strong in some arenas in life (education, military training), moderate but robust in others (social competence), and modest but consistent in others (law-abiding-ness). Whatever IQ tests measure, it is of great practical and social importance.”

Neither, luck and skill determine income and IQ has a correlation with it but they are not 1 to 1
