Business isn’t that complicated. A lot of people of average intelligence make a good living. Really smart people can accumulate a fortune if they are truly committed. Your problem is that you like to do interesting work. Someone who wants to get rich doesn’t care what he does. He only focuses on the bottom line. All day long he thinks about how he can make more money. If that means setting up more shoe shine stands, that’s what he does.
