“We live in a culture where everyone is perfectly willing to do this [to make a lot of money], and they're just looking for the opportunity. Obviously, a person who is really dumb is not gonna make a zillion dollars. But for a person who is really smart, really smart, it's a boring pursuit. It's not endlessly fascinating.” PersonsCultureOpportunityWillingSmartDollarsBoringPursuitDumbFascinatingLots Of MoneyReally SmartReally Dumb Author:Fran Lebowitz
