alot of the money he took from rich people, originally came from the middle class.

But your point about them not being smarter is so correct. They have learned different things, but in most cases they may actually be dumber. The challenges of life, even living day to day in the middle class, as a middle manager, or even laborer, can challenge your thinking and keep you sharp.

Being handed degrees at universities, then jobs from other friends, being bailed out when you fail, combined with power lunches and spa trips, without any real challenges, can make 2nd and 3rd generation wealth a bit less capable then many middle class people that make 30k to 100k.

Here is one thing they do know, and it is actually in alot of TV. If you treat people dumb or as a lesser person, that person will take that role. And if you present yourself as capable, people accept it.

Alot of success for many people is just BS. Because people are taught to believe based on programmed notions of status.
