[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For me, I feel like I always have to explain to people that natural intelligence matters more than SES when it comes to being successful.[/quote]

Clicked on this thread to say exactly the opposite. The people who are most successful in business and law are not necessarily the smartest. Those with innate genius-level intelligence may not be able to parlay it into being successful.[/quote]

That's true. Work ethic is important too.[/quote]

So are the advantages and opportunities that come from being high SES.[/quote]

I work with so many highly educated dolts…it’s all their family name and connections.

So many intelligent, hardworking people never had a chance to succeed because they lacked a family name/legacy and connections. It’s actually sort of scary. 
And the person who get the job already knows they are getting the job, the interviews are just a formality. And when the wife of the big boss gets drunk, hits on employees at the Christmas party inappropriately, while slurring racist crap, everyone remains silent.
