Not that I'm calling myself smart but i've heard this from a couple of my good friends when i was younger. I think there is a difference between streetsmart and booksmart. The best kind of *smart* person is the one that takes can take both worlds and combine them. I have only actually met one person like that in my life and boy do I envy him. For example, I would call someone like Warren Buffet or Tim O'Reilly being both streetsmart and booksmart but someone like Donald Trump or Richard Branson being more streetsmart than booksmart. Not sure about Bill Gates -- I think he is in a select few that started off booksmart then slowly became more streetsmart. “For someone so smart, you can be really stupid sometimes”
