How about why are not more rich people intelligent? From my limited experience I have found that the most outstanding characteristic of those who I have met/crossed paths with that are rich is not intelligence, but a lack of ethics/morals.

I wouldn’t go that far. I think it’s a combination of luck, demographics and being willing to sacrifice other things in life to become rich.

My experince is close to yours but I would add empathy before ethics.
