I feel the same, but it doesn't have to be a binary, just often is. It's amazing that self-made rich people aren't really smarter than average, but maybe just more obsessed with success and also just very lucky in starting conditions and along the way.

Whenever I use the word “interesting” people seem to either conflate with “smart” or even directly substitute. The two are not the same for me. Interesting: ability to surprise me repeatedly Smart: ability to think through complex and messy information to make good decisions
