Easier to be risk tolerant if you know daddy will bail you out anyways.I've worked with many incredibly wealthy folks in my career. I don't find intelligence to be one of the top attributes of those people. Some of them are intelligent and it certainly helps, but it isn't a ubiquitous quality. The top two traits I've observed are risk tolerance and work ethic. They are willing to push their chips into the middle of the table over and over and it doesn't seem to bother them one bit and they typically work excessive hours. Just an anecdotal observation.
