Brazil... their average intelligence is so low that it's not going to do as well as countries which have VVV and higher intelligence. Also, not is it just that the average intelligence of Brazil doesn't reach 100, but the top percentile is not at world class levels.

Inevitable reckoning: global financial system – which remains largely unreconstructed despite near implosion following the collapse of Lehman Brothers two years ago – is a massive con trick, characterised by lack of transparency, and largely made up of fraudulent guarantees and financial promises that cannot be kept.
