[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes all these “how to get ahead” questions make me smile. I mean, people can basically choose the IQ of a fetus now. Doesn’t that kind of beat everything else?[/quote] Not really. I have a PhD in a STEM discipline from a T20 school and realized early on in grad school that intelligence is overrated. People who make the most money and achieve the most success are not usually the smartest. They are the hardest working, most persevering, make quick decisions, and the ones with the best people skills who know how to work the system. There are way too many PhD scientists working obscure jobs making $100-150K a year jobs withering away in some underground lab and unable to move past that.[/quote]
