Private sector (big research laboratories, Lockheed Martin, Boeing, etc.), academia (top schools in the world, like Princeton, Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Oxford, etc), and government (NASA, NSA, etc).
You’re insane if you think the top “business majors” come up to even the nutsacks of the guys that graduate from schools like Princeton, Harvard, and Stanford in physics and math. Actually, I know one physics major at HYP that went into trading at GS and made a killing, but he was the only one in his department that went to WS and he admitted to being on the lowest quartile of his class in that department. One of his fellow physics majors got a Rhodes Scholarship and is making Einstein type of discoveries in propulsion that may earn him a Nobel prize one day.
Neither you nor your little fellow financial modelors can hold a candle to this next generation Einstein.
The sad part about all of this is that you know so little that you don’t know what you don’t know.
At the end of the day who is the smartest guy in the room only matters to the guy that thinks he is the smartest guy in the room. People care mostly about being happy, loved, healthy, and safe. People that get pleasure from making a ton of money tend to not be happy.
