“D” Students Make More Money

I cant stand that point of view. You have to be a failure at school to fully subscribe to that notion. People you blow at school who become financially successful compared to people who figure out doing well at school is a good idea is very skewed toward educated people. Barbara is second rate anyway. People who dismiss education because its difficult & are too weak to exhibit self control are the worst.

the secret to great wealth is hard work, perserverance, & street smarts

Most entrepreneurs start out with 0 money, I repeat ! 0 money. Bills gates, Ted turner,Robert Dell, Steve Jobs, all college drop outs. Henry ford didn’t even finish the 8th grade, Andrew Carnegie was a still worker with know education. Are education system produces employees. That’s why 10% of the people control 90% of the money.

how did the book help you? Have you made more money since you read it, or at least learned how to administrate it better?
(it’s a serious question)

You are still stuck in the mindset of which Barbara was talking about. Do what everyone else does. Being a good student dictates very little about your future life and is a narrow minded way of looking at things.

My parents neighbors were very successful stock brokers on Wall St. Now they they have lost their jobs….they have to sell their $3million home? They got good grades…but street smarts are what dictates how intelligently you spend money…

if the kids are lousy in school, it could work both ways but sometimes failure in school i sdue to lazyness and lack of effort, they could grow into adults that bear these traits and neevr succeed

The fallacy lies in the fact that, by definition, there aren’t very many people who succeed at being students.

From among 1000 students, say you have 100 good, 800 average and 100 poor students.

That means even if 100% of good students were to become successful entrepreneurs and a mere 13% of average students were to become successful entrepreneurs there would still be “more” successful entrepreneurs who were good students!!!

You see the point now?

The vast majority of entrepreneurs also fail.

Also, if you read the Millionaire Next Door, for example, by Thomas J. Stanley, most entrepreneurs were “average” students. Most were told they would never amount to much. Most were outsiders. Most didn’t go with the crowd, but against it. I think you would also agree there are people working for Gates and Buffet who are smarter than they are in other areas, but don’t make as much money as they do, because they don’t own the company the work for it. You don’t have to have a lot of ….

gates & allen, buffett, brin & page, zuckerberg, yang & filo, thiel, omidyar, soros were all A students. these wannabes just want to feel better about themselves for having been academic failures.

I think there is some truth to grades and some to truth to people that weren’t that great in school. I’ve known people that had masters..that didn’t make that much money or some that had two degree’s. I have a business however; I am a A to B student…however; in school I wasn’t interested in classes that bored me. I think everyone needs a passion to love what they do…and exceed in what they do..and the money comes with their passion to succeed and persistance to do it again if you fail.

This is the absolute truth!
