Aren't the 'good things that come to those who wait' just the leftovers from the people that got there first?

No, the "good things" are what the others overlooked in their haste. It's that beautiful shirt at the back of the rack that no one bothered to look that far back for. It's what comes next, not what was first.

No because if you had to wait for something good it couldn't be left over from something someone else had. Example: T-Bone Steak fresh off the grill. If someone had it before you they would have had to eaten it and threw it up for you to eat, but if that's what you call good then your welcome to my share.

Nooooo, you wait for something, and as soon as it arrives, you got the first pick!

No, they are called gratuities, good things that come to those who "wait".

Yes, and slightly moldy because they waited too long.
