    Consider how stupid the average (median) person is. Then realize that half of them are stupider than that.

    I don’t think you have to do the experiment, it won’t work.

      You’re assuming you need to be smart/educated to be a CEO.

      I know a couple CEO’s who are just trust fund idiots and bet people off the street would do just as good.

        You seem very confident that you don’t need to be smart to be a successful CEO. Then what do you need? Surely if anyone could be a successful CEO they would do so, 10x salary is the prize. There must be something you need to be a successful CEO.

          Most of CEOing is about networking and wealth. It’s a little club and we ain’t in it, even if we wanted to, even if the prize is 10x salary.
