Of course, it can also be argued that intelligence dulls your ambition
and chances at success.  This is because smart people can rationalize
anything and will reject potentially invalid solutions as a waste of
time.   Stupid people are too dumb to realize that the same solution
shouldn't work in the first place.  So, they'll try it.  In many
instances, the stupid succeed where smart people fail.  This is why
there is no proven correlation between intelligence and wealth.
