<<I dont see how that is possible, he sure comes across as dumb and as I reported earlier, a person who grew up with him claimed he was dumb as a doornail. Maybe he just lacks common sense?>>

I went to school with a guy like that. He quit a state university a week before the end of the first year sending a letter to the dean about how bad the university was and enlisted in the Air Force. That letter crossed with the one where he was named freshman of the year and would get the next three years free. The Air Force flunked him on the physical.

Went to work for Xerox and when he was making $60k in 75, quit because he didn't like the dress code. Started a business and when it was going fine, hired an expert and tanked the business. Started another business, got too creative in his financing and went bankrupt. Employees bought the business and hired him as a salesman. Company started making money and he was rolling in it. Quit, he didn't think the new people knew how to run a business. Now he's running a failing charity hauling home $15k a year but he's in charge!!
