比爾蓋茲貴為當今數一數二的富人，曾經狂傲自認IQ高人一等，似乎也不足為奇。

比爾蓋茲近日接受英國《金融時報》訪談，分享自己年輕時的工作狂模樣，他會在假日上班，會記住每位員工的車牌……；然後自己爆料，年少輕狂的他原本自有一套「智商階級」理論，所幸，他很快就發現那是一個天大錯誤。看看這位舉世聞名的天才是如何反省自己。

My basic theory in my twenties is that IQ was fungible….I basically thought that I should never ask somebody to work for somebody who is not smarter than them. We’ll just have this IQ hierarchy. Well that didn’t work for very long. By age 25, I realised IQ comes in different forms. These guys who understand sales and management, that seems to come negatively correlated with IQ. That was befuddling to me.

我20多歲時有個簡單的理論：智商是可替代的。⋯⋯我基本上認為聰明人不該為笨蛋工作，我們之間存在智商階級。不過這樣的想法沒有持續太久。25歲時，我發現智商有不同的表現形式，有些深諳行銷和管理的人，工作能力似乎和智商沒有關聯，這曾經一度使我迷惑。
