[quote=Anonymous]Both my wife and I have good college degrees and MBA's. My wife had 1580 SAT's and full scholarships. Brilliant lady! I had 1100 SAT's and worked hard to be a B student. She had a very good career, I had a very good career. When I retired she said I had more common sense then anyone she knew and that I was a "strategic genius". I almost fell off the chair laughing. I asked her what the heck did she mean? She said "you can take complex problems, break them down into small solvable problems and then link the solutions to solve the big problem. It's a gift". I said that I did that because I wasn't smart enough to solve the big problem. She said....you are so dumb! LOL! Point being, you can be worlds apart on the IQ chart but that doesn't mean you are not equal in terms of brain power. I have a son who inherited his mother's IQ - he's now a successful doctor. My daughter inherited my IQ and ADD (which I had) but she is knocking it out of the park working for a leading social media company. My son's smarts and her smarts are very different. But they are both very smart.[/quote]
