The smarter you are, the better you'll do in life. Surprise!

For one thing, the smart ones stay in school, work hard, get it together, and succeed.

Another way of saying it is:

"Life's tough. It's tougher when you're stupid."
John Wayne

That’s not genes. It’s training and character.

My dad couldn’t afford to finish high school, yet I grew up in the best neighborhood in the 7th wealthiest suburb in the US. One neighbor was Charles Kettering, son of the founder of General Motors, and his daughter was my friend.

Blows the statistics to hell, doesn’t it? Dad always liked doing that :}
