For example. My boss is technically the CEO of the company, but it's a company that is in an extremely specific genre and employs only 22 people.
He is VERY well versed in the industry, and started the business making a $1000 investment importing some portable phone parts wholesale that he then resold to Mom and Pop electronic stores (back when they existed in the 90s and 2000s) that weren't willing to buy at the volumes he bought them at.
Is he "smart" in the way someone on Jeopary is "smart"? Probably (definitely) not. But is he "smart" in the sense that over the last 30 years he grew the business (between calculated risks of product expansion and the gift of gab) to more than just him and his brother selling these parts from their basement? Obviously. Company grosses about $10 million a year importing and reselling a myriad of electronics parts.
I asked this because I wanted detailed answers like this
