Wealth is just responsibility, and if outlier intelligence people are underrepresented among those who choose to accumulate responsibility, this should come as no surprise to anyone. Most extra-intelligent people choose the freedom to solve problems and to be stimulated intellectually, which is an orthogonal concern to taking responsibility, risk, credit, command, and dividends.
I divide intelligent from smart as the difference between a capacity for abstraction and the ability to get what one wants. Lots of smart people are of medium intelligence, and lots of highly intelligent people are not very smart at all. What I wish I could teach is that, smart is an outcome, intelligence is an attitude, and genius is an effect.

- motohagiography 7y agoIt just means you are responsible for assets. When you choose to take responsibility for things, you become wealthier. It's the same thing.
