The upper echelon of Intellectual college students are never facing an opportunity to acquire the wealth we are talking about.

Who do you think gets those billions in bonuses the big Wall Street firms shell out. How much does a partner from a NY white shoe firm make a year. What schools are they coming from?

I'll bet there were more 7 figure bonuses passed out in 2006 on Wall Street than there were 7 figure salaries in the NFL.

We're most certainly talking about a double standard.

Also, when was the last time a student got in trouble with the NCAA for getting a free lunch from an agent?

You tell me since you seem so willing to tell others they are wrong while you obviously argue from a position of ignorance.

First we were talking about Excellent students in math an science and engineering. Now we are taking about Wall Street?

CEOs and Wall Street types did not get these large bonuses because they were gifted math students in college.

This is a far stretch from the basis of the article which started this discussion.

I hope for your sake you did not just find out that the richest people are not necessarily the smartest. I can live with that, can you?
