You dont need intelligence to have a startup that succeeds. I bet that within this thread, there are users who have ideas that can become mutltimillion companies. All it would take is someone who knows how to navigate the business space to set up funding and talk to the right people in the right way to make sales.

Success in startup space is more about motivation in terms of pushing harder than others, and support system that gives you a higher chance to make correct decisions.
