Ari do you ACTUALLY think plastic surgery is a viable solution for good looks?

And I'm sensing a pattern here. Every answer of Ari's in these polls has to do with attaining wealth and power, rather than happiness (:

Too some extent. The best of the best are probably pretty good at fixing fucked up stuff :D

Emotional stability will provide happiness ;)

At least more of it than without it

Top 25% in intelligence doesn't make you the top 25% in business, CS, math, physics or other select professions. Top 25% isn't that great at all. You still have to work for what you want!

This poll does not make you the magical super-brain that magically acquires wealth just by sitting there. It just makes you above average.

No one said anything about just sitting and doing nothing. I thought it was obvious that you would have to work to get paid, probably working very crazy and unmanageable hours. Being better than everyone else at something would make employers want to attract you to their company with high salaries. You would have to work hard to maintain that.

Curtis never said how smart, how good looking or how emotionally stable. He never said above average he just said intelligent. The difference between picking intelligence in the poll shouldnt be set between "above average" and "below average", there can be a very small difference between the lowest above average and the highest below average. Like with IQ, is there really much difference between someone scoring 99 and someone scoring 101?

So I was just pointing out the extreme cases, so you would actually feel the distinct difference in your choices.

Maybe Curtis should just be more specific :p

I think the poll is supposed to be about what you would sacrifice for the other two. There is no implication that you get to be the best ever. It's not supposed to be the ticket to hypothetical poll Ari becoming the richest man in the world.

And even then, being really smart =/= automatically the best in your field ever. You would have to work to achieve that greatness in the first place, not just maintain it while your employer shoots at you with money cannons.

Would you rather brush your teeth with shit or comb your hair with mayonnaise every day for the rest of your life

Ari: WELL HMM LETS SEE I COULD ALWAYS SELL THE LEFTOVER MAYONNAISE FROM MY HAIR AND GET FILTHY RICH AND POWERFUL BECAUSE EVERYBODY NEEDS MAYONNAISE AND NO ONE NEEDS SHIT SO I WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO SELL THAT :P

ALSO IF I BECAME A POWERFUL BUSINESS MAN ON TOP OF THE WORLD IT WOULD BE MORE DIFFICULT TO KEEP MY JOB AND POWER IF I HAD SHIT BREATH AS OPPOSED TO MAYONNAISE HAIR.. ;)

I NEED MORE DETAILS THO AM I INCREDIBLY GOOD LOOKING OR NOT?? :D
