Smart enough to get to the top, maybe not the most book smart but gotta be big time street smart.
Thats one misconception I wish would disappear. It's the misconception that brought us people like Trump and Musk.

Like it isn't really a testament of brilliance someone with a massive leg up, "rose to the top." Like being born into money or even powerful connections.

Not saying all are smart or lucky, but I do think there's an issue of romanticizing the CEO to be smart businessmen who earned their success simply because they're the CEO. Which gets us a coalition of people just believing people like Musk and Trump have profound wisdom over the masses just because they are richer than most.
