Scott Hanselman 👸🏽🐝🌮Just because you are a billionaire doesn’t mean you are smart. This is your daily reminder
James Bannan@shanselman in the interests of scientific discovery, I am willing to do an IQ test now, accept a transfer of $1 billion, and then redo the IQ test. Selfless, I know
Cube Drone@jamesbannan @shanselman I recall reading at one point or another that both the stress associated with being poor and the detachment associated with being rich negatively affect your cognitive function so it’s the Toyota Corolla folk holding the world together
kdacar@jamesbannan @shanselman No need to actually do the test. Not realizing they would just take the $1 billion after the test gives us the results. 😯
Patrick Mevzek@shanselman But you can pay (or promise to pay) someone or more than one to tell you what you want to be told. Or as you have free time on hand you just create a fake profile on a social platform and you reply to your own posts with only praise coming from supposedly someone else than you. Even cheaper option. You can't be a billionaire without cutting down some costs 🙂
Adrian Egger@shanselman @timsev I think there may be an inverse correlation
Jörg Seidel
RejZoR@shanselman And Elon Mask is the highlight example of that. He's a moron who knows how to steal others hard work and present it as his own. He's been doing that since copying the Space Invaders in his teens to this very day.
Dries V.@shanselman nowadays it just means you are privileged. If you are smart you would avoid becoming a billionaire.
Rob@shanselman It mostly just means you had rich parents already.
