Yes, it's a common factor. Not a SUFFICIENT one; again, it alone does not lead to prosperity. It's kind of like how people who wear parachutes tend to survive falling from the sky. Does EVERYONE? No. Are there rare counterexamples? At least one. Are you going to jump from a plane with no parachute?

There's a difference between something being a common factor and it being a sufficient guarantee in and of itself.
