Can you elaborate a bit on the first two sentences. What made you think you were smart, and what made you think that you're only slightly above average?
I can elaborate, but I wonder how much I can say on the internet before someone starts piecing together who I am.
I'd rather not open dump my personal life, so I'll just say that my mother is not very bright, and I discovered that before I hit double digits old, so I had to take on adult responsibilities at a very young age to stop grifters from realizing they found a human version of crack with my mother who isn't smart enough to realize a gift is coming, or how to fight her way out of it.
Not only does it make you have to learn things quick, but making mistakes was costly, so I had to learn to take the correct choices, be precise, and how to spot a grift coming before it became a problem.
Like recently when we learned about that guy who is imploding Second Wind for his own gain. That's the kind of grift I'd be able to spot, having been close to a few of them and in some of them, and had to find ways of getting out of them.
Does that make me smart? No. I just know the type, and what they want, and how to shut them down before I become too entwined in their web.
