31 “Small, Low-Key Signs” That A Person Is Really Intelligent
31 “Small, Low-Key Signs” That A Person Is Really Intelligent

What I found when reading all the above posts, it's all about how intelligence is perceived for each. So it's not really about how intelligent someone really is, is about how intelligent someone comes across ;)

Absolutely, and I think some of those people have different definitions of intelligent.

I disagree. People used to get shamed for this type of behavior by close family and friends and the behavior was rare as a result, now no one says boo to people being jerks and the jerks have managed to find each other so it is becoming more common. Therefore we need much MORE public shaming so that people learn they cant get away with this kind of abusive behavior. If I were that accountant's client I would be immediately calling her and cancelling my comtract and taking my business elsewhere while explaining exactly why. If I was her client and saw it in person I would have called her out in the moment and told her SHE would be the one with no more business once I told all the rest of her clients what I saw.

I love all the Karens coming out to defend this woman. Birds of a feather really do flock together.

SOOOOO many naive commenters! Go out and get an MBA in finance like I did...oh, that's right, you could afford it. Or withhold judgment until you serve as a corporate VP for a number of years like I did...oh, that's right, you'd like to judge before facts prove you wrong. I'm pretty sure you'd be able to Google microeconomics and learn enough to disabuse you of all the naive conclusions you've come to...but your ego probably isn't up to it.

OK, compassion of apples anger oranges is complicated. And that gives lotsa room to ignore important considerations if you're trying to prove a given POV, as the OP clearly is. For example, this guy ignored the advantage that young folks have with far more scholarship opportunities, far more ways to earn cash from self-employment (think internet), far wealthier parents to support education, etc. I'd LOVE to see an unbiased assessment from someone who understands the impact of substitutions in computing costs and valuations.
