      Lay off the GEP lah....cream floats to the top eventually, regardless of whether you are a GEPer or not.

      Well said. Phew! Makes parenting job easier... šŸ˜†

        And actually, if you mean wealth and status by 'top', the most gifted are rarely the ones there.

        No, I mean top of a chosen field.

        Even then, it depends on the field. Some fields require more than just giftedness in that field, like social skills, organisational skills, presentation skills etc.[/quote]I'm not sure why you are nit-picking? I think it is obvious that success in life (or any endeavour) is multi-factorial, so when I say \"cream floats to the top eventually\", how do you think that is supposed to be read?
