You don't make billions by being billion times smarter than other people, but by either deploying raw materials, or labor or capital to scale billion times more.

But in order to do that, you can't be 1x of the average person (generally speaking), but you don't need to be billion times better either.


If your skill is making money multiply 10x repeatedly, it doesn’t mean anything about your intelligence. It just means you’re good at making money.
