    I’m getting tired of the comments that imply not stupid = smart.

    I understand that intelligence is on a scale and that is not a black and white issue. I also understand that wealth ≠ intelligence, however in this case I do believe that he has at least average intelligence.

    This is the last “Elon Musk is not a genius” type comment that I’m replying too, I’ve said all I have to say on the matter.

    I’m not claiming he’s a genius. Just saying he’s not stupid.

    The image you shared doesn’t actually prove anything, it’s a difference of opinion unless you can source what he actually said. And at the end of the day, you don’t need to be a bean expert to run a successful baked bean company, you just need to know how to hire bean experts.

    Some people believe the Sega Dreamcast was a superior console but that it failed to appeal to the mass market because the Playstation and the xBox also had the ability to play DVDs.

    At the time DVD players were very popular and a standalone unit could cost in the ballpark of £100, so the ability to get a 2in1 unit that played games and DVDs was very attractive.
