Default Popularity is a curse?

In class a few days ago we were given a photocopy of an artical titled "Win in highschool, but lose in life". It was about a study about how students in high school who were popular usually end up with unintresting dead-end jobs and don't succeed as much in life as students who were not popular.

In the artical it stated that some scientists found this to be so because popular kids always have things handed to them. People to carry their books for them, admire them, want to be them. So when they get into the real world where no one cares about popularity they were unprepared and soft unlike the unpopular kids who grew a tough defensive outer attitude which helps them succeed in life.

What do you think about this? Is it right, wrong? Why?
