Friend, there's a world of difference between being a smart guy who completed a hard math class and being one of the world's best researchers in differential geometry.
> Bill Gates had the aptitude to be a leading researcher at probably anything if he set out to do it. He was already doing coding whilst working on math courses, so his attention was divided. Simons focused 100% on math until doing trading.
Ok, I guess you're right. A smart guy who completes a hard math class and is even also doing coding can probably do anything he wants.
