people with most amount of money are'nt the most intelligent as, some might have jumped the ladder through inheritance. Financial independence can be achieved by anybody that have motives and ambition in attaining lots of money. You don't need great ingenuity or creativity to make money. If you are obsessed with money you will get it.

To me intelligence is the ability to forsee the steps,circumstances,scenarios ahead of you, and make choices that benefit not only you but everyone as well. The ability to look ahead with a high perficiency of certainty and clarity within the realm of possibility of what one knows.

Either hes too lazy , or he's so insanely intelligent , that he sees no reason in it , in which case he could atleast be one of those new Socrates wannabees . With his iq , it should be easy to become a governator or something , yet he doesnt do it . He could maybe do some drastic change in bio chemistry , EVERYTHING and hes doing nothing , hes writing notes on what he would do if he had power , in a bar .

With his iq , he could ATLEAST try to cheat of to get some money , and then use the money in an appropriate way . But this guy does nothing , I dont understand .



Ill be quite happy if someone explains me his opinion on this .
Good Will Hunting.

This is totally irrelevant on the discussion at hand--foofie why do you put spaces before every punctuation mark?

For all his intelligence he doesnt seem to be doing much with it. I mean surely he could have been giving lectures, writing books and theories, not to mention working with other geniuses to actually solve soem of the worlds problems. Rather then being a bouncer

He's been shown on TV as the man with the highest IQ in the world. I guarantee you he's been getting job offers up the ass and he's been declining.

I'm sure he doesn't care much about money.
