Q: Ok i watched this program on History channel on the Russian mafia. It says that most get an MBA or PHD is this true? My mom lived in Russia during the mafia era and says thats not true but most the people she knew were pretty stupid.?
A: well i'm form ukraine (eastern europe) and i would say that most(not all!) rich russians are pretty stupid - they became rich because in the 90th they weren't afraid to kill people and steal money from the government and society... most very educated people are middle (upper middle) class... i come form a high class( meaning not just money but the education and culture) family and i know that a lot of mba's and ph'd of rich famous people are bought... even in my school, stupid people just pay teachers( yes, not all teachers take money and if they do it's a lot) to get a's...
