I have never noticed a correlation between being wealthy and being intelligent. I think it's clear that intelligence is not necessary to obtain wealth, and being intelligent is not sufficient to obtain wealth.
What's needed (as the article dances around) is a strong desire to become wealthy. It has to be your overt goal. Most people (of any intelligence level) don't have that desire or goal.
