You can buy them books and send to school --- and they can get fancy degrees ---> but that doesn't mean they're actually smart. That guy probably doesnt even invest/trade. I have a friend that has a PHD in economics. He worked as a professor at a local College and then was hired to write text books. When I started to buy bank stocks I asked him if he could help me figure out how to read call reports. He had no clue. Turns out, he doesnt have much money either. I haven't spoken with him recently but last I heard a mutual friend told me he moved to Oklahoma or there abouts for a job (rentseeking).
