no amount of study can make a person intelligent or wise.
it only increases his knowledge
don't expect scholars to run a country well.

Smart indicates acquired knowledge ie we use the terms "street smart" and "book smart", so smart has more to do with experience...

Clever is something you were born with, like the ability to solve problems fast.

So clever is natural talent while smart is taught/learned.

先天 VS 后天

Kong Hee, Ng Boon Gay, Professor Tey Tsun Hang are all intelligent people but not smart enough when it comes to cheating.

LKY and son are the experts.

In my opinion.

A clever person may not be smart.
Example such as those who can flair in academy.

A smart person may not be clever.
Example such as those who make it as politicians

Those who are both clever and smart is rare.
Example such as those who can start up a business from scratch

Scroobal is smart…..JW5 is clever (well, at least he thinks he is)

Scroobal (pictured) is Manipulative Yet Needy. One of his many other monikers is JHolmesJr. :wink:

I didn't know that there is a difference, but there are many smart alecs and clever fools think that there is.

When u are cheated next time u are smarter not to be cheated again.
When u can cheat you are clever than a smart person.

At the end of day, it 's all semantics. It doesn't matter if smart = clever or smart not equal clever. If you are smart or clever, it makes no difference how you are called.

sinkie uncle is smart enough to engage hooker in geylang with condom, clever enough to remove condom in the heat of action before cumming, stubborn enough to smear hooker abalone with sticky stains, and stupid enough to contract std.
