What would you have preferred to be born as: rich or smart?

[Braznor]

Its gonna be the cash for me!

 

[SirStev0]

I was born smart. Would much rather be dumb and rich.

 

[vi edit]

If I go with the money, am I accepting the cognitive ability of a tree stump? Or am I just "normal" when it comes to intelligence?

 

[JS80]

Smart is overrated. Smart people often are employed by rich people. So then technically who's "smarter"?

I guess you have to define "smart."

 

[clamum]

Smart, fo shizzle.

 

[Homerboy]

Rich.
WTF do I care how smart I am if I'm loaded.
If I'm super-smart, I'm likley still broke as a joke.

 

[SpunkyJones]

Show me the MONEY!

 

[yours truly]

braznor, i thought a better question would be

goodlooking and poor, or ugly but rich

id choose goodlooking n poor

but unfortunately the reality is, im poor and ugly

namaste

 

[DisgruntledVirus]

There seems to be a inverse relationship between money and being smart in this country

I would take $$$ over intelligence, as long as I was just "normal" (i.e. IQ no lower then say 85 or so) and not "handicapped"/"slow" (i.e. IQ of 70 or lower)

If you follow this comic: Drunken Lemurs - you'll want to have time, not talent.

 

[Vehemence]

Rich.

2 chicks at once.

 

[Saint Nick]

Smart.

You can use the smart to get rich.

 

[rivan]

Ignorance = bliss.

Ignorance+$=bliss^2?

You can usually go the other way as well. Both take hard work though.

The difference is when you're smart but poor, and you take a break from trying to get rich you eat spaghetti-o's. When you're rich but dumb, you eat two chics at the same time.

 

[Demon-Xanth]

Rich, because then I would be rich and not know I was an idiot.

if youre dumb and loaded the chance of losing that cash is there. if youre smart, all you need to be rich really is motivation. once you achieve rich from your smarts, you have a much better chance at maintaining that richness i think. ill take smart and motivated over rich and dumb as a post.

Being dumb wouldn't matter if I was loaded with the cash. You can pay people to do anything... including come up with smart ideas.

 

[bigrash]

Rich

 

[KB]

$$$$ Being rich can buy you an education which can make you smart. Being smart, as I am now, doesn't always get you the money, as I am seeing now.

 

[Twista]

Rich!

You can't buy smart.

But still, I'd rather be rich than smart. Being smart isn't enough, it still takes work to get somewhere. If I was just rich and dumb I could be lazy and happy.

[Ricochet]

Being smart can make you cynical about life.

Ignorant is bliss especially with loads of cash.
