You can't just invent a trait. You have to define it and measure it and distinguish it from other traits and use it to predict the important ways that people vary. EQ is not a psychometrically valid concept. Insofar as it is anything

That's a good counter argument, thank you. This is why I also mentioned betting against over a multi-year period, which you can do manually like Sam Altman did with tech valuations, or using something like longbets.org. You can also st

I don't understand. Why did the person stay for 10 years? This seems like something you notice after 1 year, or even a few months, let alone 10 years. Is there some family context here that is missing?

That's definitely not the key takeaway from the article. What's your point exactly? His approach worked. Your approach works as well. I doubt OP would claim your approach to be inferior, but for some reason you seem to want your p
