Personally, I think it's best if you can promote something that you're really passionate about, and put everything that you have into it. But if you don't have one of those tugging at you, either think about what that might be, or test a few and then dive into the one or 2 that show some hope.

It is easy to get passionate about something that shows the hope of success. However you measure that.

IMO.
Interesting theory.

However, a noob, or someone inexperienced does not have the skills coming in to make one site bust out of the gates, and the odds of them stumbling into a goldmine is next to nil IMHO.

I think someone starting out needs to focus on one, maybe two, sites. Learn all the skills lthat it takes to build traffic, SERPS, link bait, updates, fan base, etc. before they going branching into 10 or 100 sites throwing shit at the wall hoping to stumble into gold.

Furthermore, not having success on one site is frustrating enough over months. Multiple that by 10, or 100 and you see why so many quit before getting out of the starting blocks. Of course, I am not staying one mega site forever. I am saying start with one, learn some skills, and then multiply.
