text: do you think that smarter people get a better life?   hi, i think that smart people do not necessarily have a better life. since, they might be looked down on as being nerds- smarty pants. additionally, smart people sometimes have a harder time being social since their always thinking with their brain. also, it depends on what kind of smart you mean, a smart- quick witted person may have a good life getting along with people. however, all people have equally good lives, its what you make of it.
