People somehow keep thinking rich = smart or even loud = smart. But I tend to perceive quiet and calm as smarter. The people who loudly talk and may be great at marketing are more often the ones impressing the general masses though. It just seems much smarter not to draw any attention (to your project sure, to you as a person, probably not so smart).
- JumpCrisscross 3y agoThere was a time when public speaking was ranked as peoples' number one fear. Many saw someone, particularly a young someone, willing to speak publicly as a mark of greatness. Social media has dragged us out of that infancy. But the bias, particularly among the pre-digital generations, remains. Bankman-Fried's word salads played that bias, which generated social proof. That, in turn, played into others' bias towards judging character by social proof. That generated wealth, which played into still others' quick filters.
