[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom told me to only marry a man whose job I could understand. My dad is a PhD scientist. There was a kernel of wisdom in that.[/quote] Was she saying - marry someone you are intellectually compatible with? I’m not sure I’m following the rationale.[/quote] It's not IQ-based. So, more like...be able to be interested in each other's professions, consider the impact of workaholism, consider the social circle you will build. I said there was a kernel of wisdom. It's not 100% true or universal. I can soundbite what my dad did at work but I can't explain the phenomena he worked on without looking it up. I also cannot read the equations in the papers he wrote. I can't guess how many years of college math it would take to be able to read them. I stopped at Calculus and simple econometrics.[/quote]
