i know knowledge doesn't measure intelligence, but lack of knowledge pretty well renders intelligence useless
Intelligence denotes the ability to learn, and that is not a static situation nor a singular trait. Intelligence also is dependent upon how one uses knowledge; decision making and choice making. How would you rate yourself using the aforementioned criteria ?

Right there demonstrates a lack of intelligence....If one is attempting to convey an idea or concept and the listener doesn't understand, it is the failure of the speaker who hasn't (for any number of reasons) explained in a cogent fashion
what if they're too simple minded to understand it no matter how you explain it? that makes them stupid

So, we've established that intelligence 1) aids in learning, making the acquisition of knowledge easier 2) determines how one uses acquired knowledge.

Correct?

Knowledge is a skill set or information you've acquired threw life experience. Intelligence is how you use that knowledge.
i just mixed up the terms, knowledge doesn't measure brains is basically what i'm trying to say

somebody can do shit in school and still be very smart, eminem for example

No, because he's from Detroit mthrfkr!

Intelligence influences how one gains and utilizes knowledge, but style (deliberate or unconscious) is also a part of how one expresses ideas.


Personality, or style, colors how information is conveyed, in addition to brightness.

intelligent people that lack knowledge or a skill are still useless to society..If you don't aquire the knowledge needed to be successful or don't use it to your advantage then you were never intelligent. You just assumed you were. Every one is born with potential.

Why do you think Eminem is smart? Because he can rap? Because he has a lot of money?
Explain. What criteria are you using to say that so and so is smart?
stupid people can often be rich and famous off their own stupidity (merica proved this) i don't know about his new music but his old music had lyrics what showed that he understood the concept of seeing more then what he sees with his own two eyes, unlike majority of rappers what rap about nothing besides bitches, money, drugs, ignorance is bliss, Eminem understood this concept

Define stupid. Unless one inherits their wealth, stupid people don't become rich and famous. You may not agree with their choices or decisions but if they made and maintained wealth, they weren't stupid
