Seeing as how he started preaching for Trump at concerts November 2016? Nein.
That said, interesting case, wonder if they’ll get the pardon.
I was trying to make a different point. You’re using success as a barometer for how smart people are. In reality, there are other factors that can impact success - in Kanye’s case musical talent (at least in the eyes of some people) and in Kim’s case her looks. I’m not saying there aren’t other factors involved - clearly, there are; however, you can’t just distill it down to intelligence.
^I knew you loved fishsticks.
Well obviously, but I was also being petty to push buttons. That said, if it didn’t take a significant amount of intelligence everyone with a leaked tape and a mic would be the next kim and kanye.
I mean there are other musicians who have been very successful and aren’t necessarily above average on the intelligence spectrum. Moreover, there are other examples of professions such as professional athletes in which there are people who have been very successful and are definitively not intelligent. Morris Claiborne has generated $30m in career earnings and scored a 4 on the wonderlic. 4!
There are different types of intelligence my friend. That said, most of the kanye and kim wealth is from business and media presence, you don’t get there and stay there for more than a decade without some serious business smarts. If it’s so easy go write yourself a rap album make your $50M and get off the forum.
I mean Kanye has built net worth of $150M and Kim’s is about the same. This is far beyond single skillset money.
I can’t do that, which is exactly my point. However, I would bet I’m more intelligent than Morris Claiborne by any measure of intelligence that’s possibly conceivable, yet I still can’t earn $30m playing professional sports.
So to bring us all the way back to the main point I was refuting - the guy who’s writing Kim’s tweets could very well be smarter than her but isn’t more successful than her because you can’t be that successful solely due to intelligence.
By the way, Kanye isn’t even on this list so clearly he’s hacksaw even within his core competency:

No, she built her empire on social media so I’d bet dollars to donuts she’s smarter than a professional tweet writer (assuming there was one). Adding to that, you’re really pulling an extreme outlier with Claiborne and putting far too much weight on one test (sign of classic under thinking by the way). By necessity most good kinetic ability requires a fast neural system so I’m betting in many ways Claiborne isn’t as dumb as you’re saying he is (again, based on one test). Beyond that, holistically in efficient markets, (and given that intelligence is definitely a factor in success in life) I’ll still resort to lifetime earnings as a good a measure as any for overall capability across bands of intelligence and ergo assert that you are dumber than everyone mentioned. Sorry for your loss.

Claiborne: “They say it’s an IQ test. I came to the combine for football… I’m not in school anymore. I didn’t complete it. I only finished 15 or 18 questions.”
Went 6th in the draft and made 8 figures before playing a game. Who’s dumb now? Keep blindly doing everything you’re told though, maybe we can all retire by 65 if we play our cards right and the man says we can.

Black Swan (2m) is turning into Nery (400k) and ltj (-130k) doesn’t like it.
Cool, so let’s compare our lifetime earnings and we can see who’s more intelligent? Winner gets to declare victory over the other.
Two guys comparing made up numbers on an anonymous internet forum… sounds scintillating, you brainstorm that all by yourself? Before you know it we’ll have tape measures out.
I DECLARE VICTORY OVER BLACK SWAN!
you gotta respect it……she is making star hedge fund manager money….
real quick. im super curious. is five inches ok?
and if it is how about 4.5? also how do we round?
do we round 4.1 to a 4.5 and a 4.6 to a 5.0.
having all this said, i can guarantee at least 3 inches min.
for the record, i agree with king kong.
in addition net worth is prolly a better barometer.
also i feel that its pointless to go above the estate tax max, which is 10m.
at that point i would just enjoy life.
you know everything is good and well on AF when BS is trolling folks again.
Nah, this is a much more mature BS. He was obviously trolling and having fun. Two years ago this would have turned into virtual fistacufts.
