A lot of smart people do dumb things. The Enron guys were pretty smart and went to jail. The people who blew up the financial markets in 2008 were very intelligent. Actually they were the smartest: made the public believe the world would go under if they couldn't keep their bonuses and receive a bailout. I consider myself pretty intelligent and I have done plenty of dumb things although with some thinking I could have known they are dumb.
