It's possible to play a 20 INT character if the rest of the cast is adjusted accordingly.

I have a theory that a lot of highly successful people have either a partner or a team that is willing to do the grunt work. They basically have/created a surrounding that allows them to focus on what they do best. The media will picture how that person is so smart and great, but without the proper environment they wouldn't be able to thrive.

Smart people have a tendency to think they can do everything on their own because they are so smart, which is quite stupid actually.
