[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is a "smart kid 3.0" but the opposite of your kid, OP.  Solid test taker, disengaged student.  Wants to go to Embry Riddle, which might be attainable.  SAT scores will be well above average, GPA below average.  I think he's an admissions officer's least favorite applicant. [/quote]

I have a family member like this. He's the same as an adult. Doesn't work that hard at work but incredibly smart. Reads more than anyone I know and knows more about anything than anyone I know, but he doesn't use it to translate to real world success. He's ok with it, but I don't think his wife is! [/quote]

I'm scared for my kid's future wife as I think his home life will take the hardest hit.  I think he'll be okay financially though.  He can hyperfocus on things he enjoys, and he happens to enjoy trading, and has my quite a bit of money in his Greenlight account on day trades.  I think he'll figure out how to make money because he likes money and risk.  He'll do it in the way that requires the least amount of effort possible. I'm not sure how marriage will go for him, though. [/quote]
