Imagine an graph

The Y but no X have Talent but no social skills
The XY have talent and social skills
The X but no Y have social skills but no talent
the No X and no Y have neither


XY will likely be successful, they will climb and make a good living
X but no Y will likely be fairly successful too, the XY's will carry them to the top with them!
the Y but no X will likely fail, unless their Y is CRAZY HIGH (i.e. Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerburg)
the no XY will be a complete failure!

maybe i'll make a living proving reductionists wrong.

I suppose for some people it probably is.

I seem to stick with 7 year relationships. Current one is at 6.5 years, so I might actually break a record here soon.
