pollute_my_lungs 🚎🏳️🌈@jackofalltrades it’s so funny how people think rich people have some sort of higher intelligence than everyone else.
@pollute_my_lungs There was a study about it, in fact: https://theconversation.com/are-rich-people-more-intelligent-heres-what-the-science-says-205694
"""
A fine intellectual ability improves the chances of getting rich. Nonetheless, intelligence is no guarantee of getting rich. Furthermore, a series of fortunate events can clearly turn unremarkable individuals into high earners.
That is, when it comes to getting rich, intelligence is neither sufficient nor necessary. But it does help.

@jackofalltrades well I’m skeptical we can measure intelligence. Maybe we need a definition. But nonetheless, a person could be an expert in one thing and an idiot in another thing.
