Why Dumb People Earn More Than Smart People | How Money Works

Why Dumb People Earn More Than Smart People------ Edited By: Andrew GonzalesMusic Courtesy of: Epidemic SoundSelect Footage Courtesy of: Getty ImagesFor sponsorship inquiries, please contact sponsors@worksmedia.groupAll materials in these videos are for educational purposes only and fall within the guidelines of fair use. No copyright infringement intended. This video does not provide investment or financial advice of any kind.#business #finance #careers ------Dumb people make more money than smart people and it took a study conducted by really smart people to prove it. A study out of Sweden has found that top earners have lower intelligence than the people in income levels directly below them.The Plateauing of cognitive ability among top earners drew on data from 59,000 men who had to take a compulsory military conscription aptitude test. It then tracked their earnings over their professional careers to find the relationship between intelligence and income. Before Tai Lopez gets any ideas for more shitty YouTube commercials or the hustle bros learn how to read journal articles and use this to encourage people to drop out of college, I want you all to know how this data really works.The relationship between intelligence and income was strong, smarter people earnt more money but only up to six hundred and seventy thousand Swedish krona or sixty-four thousand dollars per year. After that intelligence didn’t mean much anymore and at the very top end of income earners, the 1%, dumber people actually did better.So is this a sign that watching TikTok and reality TV is actually better for your career than going to college? Well maybe actually, for two important reasons but there are also two reasons why you should probably ignore this and keep studying hard if you want to get ahead financially. Reason number one why dumb people are doing better than smart people is that smart people fill in high prestige jobs that don’t have high salaries.Academics and research scientists are some of the smartest people in the world, but they don’t get paid well. Doctors, lawyers and elite financiers also need to be very smart to get through demanding schooling and admission exams and these professionals ARE typically compensated very competitively BUT most of them don’t make it all the way into the 1%. In the USA to be in the top 1% of income earners an individual needs to make at least five hundred and ninety-seven thousand dollars before tax and that’s just the minimum to join the 1% club.so it’s time to learn How Money Works to find out why dumb people are earning more than smart people and why this trend is completely meaningless for your own career planning.Follow to learn How Money Works.Find How Money Works on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HowMoneyWorksDisclaimer: This podcast is an independently produced audio adaptation of content originally created by How Money Works.

How American Generals Are Being Paid Millions To Serve Foreign Governments - How Money WorksUpgrade the way you learn with Brilliant! To get started for FREE go to http://www.brilliant.org/howmoneyworksSign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈 ---- Washington Post Investigation (A Must Read For More Details) - https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/interactive/2022/veterans-us-foreign-jobs-saudi-arabia/Let’s say you devote your life to military service. You enrol in officer training and work up the ranks until one day you are a general with combat experience in whichever country the States decided had too much oil.American Generals, and Admirals make are O-10 level employees and make a base salary of $203,000 a year, with generous benefits and bonuses for deployment.That’s good money to most people, especially when it continues as a lifetime military pension of $180,000, every single year, for doing nothing, once you have put in your twenty years of service.Service men and women EARN every last cent of this money and people who have dedicated their lives to serving in our armed forces should be looked after, the system is much better at looking after the top brass than the common soldier, but that’s besides the point.I could never do this job and I respect anybody that can, at least I did until the world started learning about what they do after their career comes to an end (or just get’s started depending on how you look at it)The retirement benefits of a military general should be good enough for anybody to live of off, but some don’t see it this way.Some think that Generals are basically chief executives of large organisations with tens of thousands of employees, handling billions of dollars, and working on the most challenging projects in the world.When you put it like that, the public service pay scale starts to look a bit mediocre… Leaders in the private sector are making millions of dollars a year for the same level of work and they don’t spend their time in active warzones.So to set things right, high level military leaders have taken a page out of the investment banking interns playbook. It’s not about the money they are making right now, it’s about the job they CAN get once they have padded out their resume a bit.So it’s time to learn how money works to find out how America’s top military leadership are using their careers to score obscenely lucrative contracts with some not so friendly governments. -----#howmoneyworks #retirementplanning #militaryEdited By: Andrew GonzalesMusic Courtesy of: Epidemic SoundSelect Footage Courtesy of: Getty ImagesFor sponsorship inquiries, please contact sponsors@worksmedia.groupFollow to learn How Money Works.Find How Money Works on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HowMoneyWorksDisclaimer: This podcast is an independently produced audio adaptation of content originally created by How Money Works.
