Do you think this is true? For the most part how sucessful you will be in life will be determined by the people you hang out with? If you have friends who are losers most likely you will become a loser? You are not going to be that far off health wise, income wise, and goal wise from your friend. Of course there are going to be exceptions. Thoughts? Does that mean if I'm a B student and I started hanging out with the A students would my grades be better probably?

No, if you're a loser it's more likely your friends will be losers. Just like if you're successful your friends will be successful. Your friends don't make you who you are. You're just more likely to choose friends who are a lot like you.
