OH no....no no no. In my husbands line of work we spend a great deal of time with people who have, what I call, stupid money. They will pick him up in their personal jet, fly him to the Bahamas just so he can drive their yacht to a luncheon for them and bring them back. Then they fly him home. I don't have to tell you that they spend thousands to do that and believe me, many of them are not the crispest cookies in the bag.

Its not really how clever you are, its what ideas and qualifications you have.

look how many assholes and bitches there are that are filthy rich

Yes, to a certain degree, but I doubt Paris Hilton is the sharpest pencil in the box. You could have inherited your wealth or been given greater opportunities in life as far as education and connections to higher-power people.

yes, to certain degree, seeing oportunity and timing is how most are self made rich, 90% of the rich I met, inherited it.

no, it's not. i have some relatives that have a lot more money than i do, but they never finished school. i on the other hand, am college educated and my wife is an attorney, but we don't even have a pot to piss in.

being rich is all about good luck; it's that simple.

I'll know the answer to this question after becoming rich (or smart).

I don't gauge my success by the amount of money I have.

I am super-intelligent but I am not rich because I am super-lazy
by Goku94 on Tue Jul 13, 04 1:21am [+]

I'm just years ahead of my time....j/k!

I think it can also be indicative of priority... I'm sure many intelligent people simply choose to put their time & effort into other aspects of their lives, like family....
...and drugs....

dude... just look at all the pro athletes. Look at pro baseball!!! they're striking... HOW CAN THEY BE STRIKING? They're all getting so much money, and if they get fired, they have no other talents, so I guess they could go work at mcdonalds... stupid MLB people

I'm not rich because the jews are sabotaging my career.

Kidding!
