People honestly just do not like objective measures.

>>55465928
cause its true

Intelligent people tend to fall upwards in society. Being truly rich requires more than just "being smart" though.

>>55465928
I think it's hilarious

chips on shoulders

>>55465928
Because the truth hurts and elicits emotional response.

>>55465928
>>55466161
There is some correlation, but being rich = smart + hardwork + luck

It can be 90 + 5 + 5, or 0 + 0 + 100 or any combo. But it takes more that intelligence to become rich, dumbfuck.

>>55466930
>hardwork
lmao tell that to shib buyers
>luck
massive cope
>smart
Yes. If you didnt get rich, then you arent that smart, simple as.

>>55465928
What is rich?

>>55465928
Doesnt trigger me.
I know Im retarded.

>>55465928
What is rich?
How do even people choose the specialization/industry when there so many ways to go about it?

Huuhh black anons, our response?

>>55465928
to become rich its not about being smart. its about being unethical.

the richest a smart person can become is like a doctor or some sort of patent inventor. Einstein died with would be 600k in today's money. not rich at all. the rich are always nepobabies who learned how to screw people over to make their fortunes. Then they donate money to appear good like carnegie

>>55465928
rich people is evil, btw im not coping

>>55465928
because most rich people just had nepotism and parents help them

Wow, how could there have been fewer flu cases at a time when everybody, especially the elderly, stayed in doors?!

>>55465928
Does it really matter if we're all gonna die.

Because it's stupid.

>work a reasonably good and interesting job for the government
>most days 10-5 with an hour for lunch
>my weekends are my own
>I earn more than the national average with plenty of vacation time
>job is secure and stable
>my efforts go to mostly positive stuff instead of selling shit people don't need

And yet apparently I'm an idiot for not taking a private sector job paying x4 more. Nah.

>>55467826
Do you actually believe that? They clearly mislabeled the flu as covid in some capacity.

Also Florida and Texas were completely open. If your contention is correct, you still would have seen about half of the flu cases.

You people don’t critically think. I feel sorry for the masses.

>>55467826
>flu, influenza, pneumonia and all forms of respiratory syndromes cease to exist almost entirely
>this is fine, because people stayed indoors.
trust the science
Kek,

>>55465928
Yeah man, the "cash me outside" girl is clearly a genius.

>>55465928
Simply because people like to think they're smart, even if they're poor.

>>55465928
i took too much acid and couldn't come to grips with the realization that labor exploitation and grifting rubes for my own gains was the only reliable way to 'make it' in my career field.
a James Beard award isn't worth dick if you don't have the stomach to grift normies and hire stagieres that work for minimum wage+experience. i chose to step away rather than perpetuate the cycle.

>>55467994
unironically yes
>>55467783
then einstein was stupid cause he didnt know how to profit off his fame, despite being a jew.
Turns out ethical people are retarded cause nature doesnt give a shit about your morals, you and your genes either get ahead in this world or they perish, riches and the right knowledge is the way to ensure they prosper

>>55465928
I could probably make it but I'm lazy and I procrastinate a lot. I hate myself for it.

>>55466930
You can get rich being lucky or working hard
But if you were intelligent you'd figure out how to get rich without working or luck. Assuming your goal is to get rich. Lots of 'geniuses' give no fucks and just do the minimum to live comfortably so they can focus on what they want.

>>55465928
My problem is I'm a savant with autism. So I'm testably very very smart and have two difficult degrees and burned out almost permanently after I graduated.

But maybe OP is true for most people.

>>55468924
>I'm le special
Brainlet

Stupid but creative people can also get rich
If you are stupid but hardworking and creative
then you can do something very special

The problem is, it seems like only 0.0001% or something of the population is truly creative. Or the number might be much higher, the problem is, they have been told they are stupid their whole lives, so they never pursue those creative ideas.

But I guess chances that someone is truly creative is lower than them being really smart.

>>55468335
the headline is actually shooped, the original doesnt say the second part.

>>55468924
I'm an idiot, and I have 2 degrees.

>making money your most important thing in life

Hi super genius here. I hate working. Could not figure out how to get rich with low effort.
Finally, I stumbled on selling options. Now I am rolling in cash with low effort. Just needed to work a labor job to get money for collateral. Now i am free to persue my other desires.

>you and your genes either get ahead in this world or they perish, riches and the right knowledge is the way to ensure they prosper
Sounds pretty gay overcomplicating this shit. The real secret is to live your life however you can then embrace the cool surprises along the way. Most rich people had massive advantages and were willing to sell their soul to sell shit they knew exploring a human weakness like gluttony, greed, lust etc. The one's that didn't do this were at the right place, right time, and road the wave and called it good without making their life about money. Many times these people make less than others but they were smart enough to know they had enough

>>55469653
Oh you mean like niggers?

>>55469814

>>55469968
retarded yes but non religious

>>55469971
you still spout christian memes like
>selling your soul
>gluttony greed and lust are le evil sins
the richfags just know subconsciously or not that creating a lasting legacy is important, which you simply cannot do without wealth. Look at who runs the world today.. centuries old dynasties and they will keep running the world centuries from now cause they know what this life is about

>>55470002
who gives a shit anyway lol, not like you're gonna be around to see your legacy or whatever in 200k years

If you're so rich, a literal billionaire, why are you so braindead retarded as to go on a fake submarine with no safety measures 13,000 feet below water?

>dude who cares you gonna die anyway
this is why whites are going extinct

>>55465928
Kikes control the money supply and give it to other kikes. There is no amount of education or skills you can have that will make the kikes not fuck you over, the only way to win is to exit their system. Fuck the jews. Bobby Fischer was smarter than most and he was a raging completely broke anti-semite. Here's the tier chart.

Not knowing the jews control everything - Dumb
Worshiping the Jews through christanity- semi smart
Becoming a jew to make a bunch of money- very smart
Realizing that you only get one life and kike shit is fucking gay and raging against the machine in hopes of affecting the future where we can have a world that isn't fake and gay. - Tesla, Fischer smart.

We got fluoride in our water because Jews hate non jews so much they'll just poison everyone. That's why the last tier exists because some men are not content with selling out they'd rather keep who they are instead of playing their game. When you kick, the system will kick back. But here's the funniest part even jews hate the system they work for so a lot of times you'll get indirect help from people way high up who see what you're doing and are into it even though they can't openly say they like what you're doing they'll support you indirectly and covertly.

>>55470132
>you only get one life
thats where you're wrong kiddo, and thats why jews play the long game and your life isnt all that matters and legacy is so important

>>55467783
You're smart if you aren't constrained by ethics*

>>55470132
>Realizing that you only get one life and kike shit is fucking gay and raging against the machine in hopes of affecting the future where we can have a world that isn't fake and gay. - Tesla, Fischer smart.
what can a non genius do that would be Tesla/Fischer level smart? I personally work from home (high paid NEET basically), pay off living costs, then dump the rest to crypto during bear markets and sell during bull markets. Been doing this since 2017 and so far its going well. I know crypto is a ponzi but it's low effort high ROI and I hope to eventually escape this whole money scam system
>>55470144
not like you're gonna be around to see your legacy or whatever in 200k years

>>55470193
i rest easy knowing my genes will still be around, just like every creature does in nature. You're probably a faggot nihilist and materialist so nothing matters to you. You can only reincarnate within a genetic range, so if whites disappear then so do my chances to occupy a body and my soul will perish. This is ancient wisdom not something im making up. Sounds like mumbo jumbo to you? you havent thought this stuff through

Say you put out a bucket every night with a label that said "dumb fucks" on it, and every morning you woke up and the bucket was full of dumb fucks.
You'd feel like they didn't deserve much respect, wouldn't you? You might even feel that they were consenting to being abused, by being so consistently stupid and baited.

>>55465928

I thought it was an edit it is an actual study lol

>>55470261
Sure give up all your life thinking about legacy just for your kids or their grandkids to fuck it up. To live is to cope. Everyone comes up with their own way to alleviate pain and thus cope.

>>55470305
having kids is the first part.. making sure they and their kids dont fuck up is the second (and most important).
You call it cope because you dont understand the spiritual nature of man. Souls need bodies or they die. You are weak and will perish with that attitude, nature doesnt give a shit

>>55465928
Oversimplification and subjectivity of value. It is ultimately, not incorrect in the sense that if the smart people were desperate enough to accumulate wealth, they would probably figure out a way to do so given time and effort.

Probably wouldn't even need to be immoral in many cases either as there's plenty of ways to improve things in society while making a buck, but if you've already achieved adequate financial security, you might just end up retiring early and playing with animals in a farm if you're not compelled to leave a legacy.

Smart people don't necessarily end up pushing for Karoshi if the job is a means to an end.

>>55465928
Rich people are really fucking stupid. A carbon fiber submarine? Holy fuck I'm laughing forever on this.

>>55467826

>>55470798
If they're so smart why did they all* get divorce raped?
*Bottom left idk

>>55465928
The ego has no bounds, you learn in life either early or later that successful people enjoy nothing more than twisting the knife into everyone around them, they want you to know they're better than you because someone pays them more for their time than your time. Every single conversation, every single relationship is just sizing you up. It's so morbid and disgusting that it's almost bordering on simulation in how absurdly vapid and shallow everyone and everything is. Rich people are very slightly more likely to be just a tiny bit smarter, but most true geniuses don't even walk on the surface.

TL;DR
>live your life, be happy, the end
>chase after wealth to brag to people if that gets you up in the morning

>>55468323
>then einstein was stupid cause he didnt know how to profit off his fame
He profited off his knowledge and earned eternal fame. Literally perhaps the second most well-known name of the 20th century after Hitler, I'd guess. He wouldn't be as wellknown if he'd be all about having a business

>>55472335
The nature of the 'business' world, world of jobs, etc. is competition, acquisition, domination, violence. Mostly non-physical violence now in more 'civilised' countries.

>>55465928
extremely true. you could inherit wealth, but that's because you're part of a gene pool which was smart enough to be wealthy in the first place.

The headline and the small print contradict each other?

>>55465928
I don't mind being stupid honestly, why should i care about being smart?

Whats the difference btn being gifted and having talent? Does this retard know that giftedness means that you can excel at anything you do if you tried to.

>win lottery
damn i must be a genius to guess numbers correctly

>>55472506
You have to be smart to keep your winnings. Dumb people will naturally return to poverty no matter how much they are given.
Best examples of this are the dumb people who recycle garbage about X billionaire being able to end world hunger. These same people think trading billions for more ego is a good trade yet will turn around and seethe at historical richfags who donated parks to the public.
And world hunger would still exist after they gave all their money away. Because agricultural infrastructure is the problem, not lack of charity.

>>55472528
that doesnt mean anything though, since time is forever and everyone dies and eventually everthing goes to zero

>>55472547
It does actually mean a lot.
Let's say there's two people, one with the agency to change the world around them as he possesses the sufficient mental and physical faculties to go about his life, set goals and achieve them.

And another one who doesn't, whom despite being given the same resources would fall prey to addictions and is unable to manifest his thoughts into action and whatever thoughts he does have tend to be ones that aren't based on research, experience or facts, but rather whatever his social circle has come to a consensus about.

Only one of these had men lived his life. The other was simply present when it happened.
