If money making is the smartest thing in the world , then Harshad Mehetha and Dawood Ibrahim should be the smartest people to have ever lived in this country . I have no problem with the article to be represented as art of money making , but to say those who do not have money is dumb is completely illogical and shows the short sightedness of the author . Because as this logic goes Gandhi and Netaji with other freedom fighters are dumbest people in the world who wasted their life for a cause . So kindly be careful in choosing your words .

Dumb here does not mean that a person is brainless, dumb here means dumb in finance matters which i guess is the case with lot of people not from finance background.. pls do not misinterpret the article and dont get emotional ... its not about philosophy..its abt finance...

Its not sayng that ppl without money are dumb. Think of money as a notion here, as a symbol of valuable entities. if u have read carefully, u will see that its not only bout money, its also about old cars, stocks etc.

The article does not say that "who do not have money is dumb ". Its applicable only for investors (or who want to control their finances), who can either be dumb or smart investors.

I think you should re-read the article and try to understand its essence, which you seem to have missed completely.... Your comment seems totally unrelated...
