True.. But engineers often have more knowledge than judgement. Engineers are often too cautious to run businesses successfully. This isn't a blanket statement, but engineering school does not make an entrepreneur or even create much business savvy. Engineers are the most cautious lot I've ever worked with. Among the most intelligent, but I can't imagine them making ballsy market moves.
